    I already did it, if you can swap a cv shaft, you can do this with ease. The puller falls right in place, and then an allthread shaft threads right in. There is a YouTube video in the 2nd Gen thread about the shaft wobble and how to drive in the new bushing. The good news is that with 73k miles on my truck, including hard and very wet off roading, the assembly grease inside the wheel hub was still present, and the bearing were still shiny as the day they were installed. No signs of water in the front diff or in the wheel hub.

    Has anyone ever filled in the fog light hole with some sort of expanding foam and then wrapped/painted the bumper?

    I just put fog lights in the hole instead.

    Kidding aside, I think that might look good. Reminds me of a rollpan in the back.

    What have you guys done to soften the ride? I’m completely stock right now. I know short wheel base and 4x4, but these Seattle roads are bad and magnified with this stock reg Cab.

    Anyone know of a leaf spring to coil conversion? My buddy has a Wrangler and he has coils +2 links in rear instead of leafs.

    Swapped my steering wheel and added radio buttons today to complement my radio update. Swapping the airbag to new cover SUCKED. I’ll do a write up in coming days. Painted my hubs red for a retro look.
