    How’s much did they charge for the center bearing? If they charged them out seperately.

    Just buy a new CB. Unless you are a mechanic, throwing parts at it is your best bet :D

    I did this morning, so far so goodish, besides the warmth that shows up right by the bearing. Its a constant heat, it doesn't get hotter and hotter the farther its driven, just stays warm.

    Not really, I actually used a torque wrench today. Maybe there's nothing actually wrong and I'm just paranoid.

    I have to drive 150ish miles later today so I guess Ill know for sure.

    I had the same problem with hawk pads from the start, I tried removing the glaze and re doing the bedding procedure, nothing worked. Swapped to ebc and have been extremely happy.

    Post up on Facebook if you have it. I’m sure someone will know someone who has a cousin that has some parts.

    Bigger audience.

    My cheap eBay fendors fit pretty good, but you’ll have to paint it.

    Here is my very first post on TW. I have been a fan of TW for a while so I finally made an account.

    IMG_0195.jpg IMG_0194.jpg IMG_0196.jpg IMG_0197.jpg Saturday I received my 33x10.50r15's in the mail. I got them mounted and balanced Saturday. Today I wired and installed 2 flush mount LED pods on the back of my tool box. I still need to do a little trimming on the lower valence of my bumper but I still drive it.

    Agreed!

    Speaking of which. I initially didn't have time to install my bass controller (at least not where I wanted it to be), so I left it off. It's now on my to-do list for this weekend.

    I think I might have 01-04 corner lights (clear) if you need them. If you do, I'll just send them to you.

    Just need to check the parts heap.
