    A thing or two...
    People are going to need a lot more information to give any kind of useful advice.

    Are you lifted or stock suspension? If you're lifted, what lift are you running (brand/inches of lift/etc)? Are you running stock or aftermarket UCAs? Again, what brand if aftermarket? What are your alignment specs? When was the last time you had an alignment? Has the truck ever been in an accident?

    Definitely make sure you check the rear drums after heavy mud. Packs in there!

    Saw a guy on here got refused service or warranty or something at a dealership because his drums were full of mud which was a sign of Off Road use.

    That's certainly on the video "to do" list. :thumbsup: I did a vid for things to check after offroading when your truck is still filthy, but not for cleaning tips.

    Installing Duralast GT rotors and Duralast MAX brake pads.
    Update at 8pm.... piston on the last installation will not disengage. I just went and bought a new caliper for front driver's side. Luckily I have a $40 credit at AutoZone, and a core charge of $25 when I take in the old caliper.... cost will be about $65 after that. Of course, that means I'll be changing the passenger side out soon

    After almost a month of being busy I was so excited to finally replace them and upgrade. Told the wife I wasnt doing anything until they were done. 15 min later I was cleaning the house with her

    I put my new KenwoodDDX376BT stereo in today.Was pretty easy after reading the write ups here. Ran the bluetooth mic to right above the steering cover in front of the speedometer display. The sound now rocks in my truck, and no need for now to replace the speakers. Next project is the front brush guard install.

    I’d do it this way if my driveway wasn’t sloped. I do the opposite corners then flip it for the other pair. necessary evil.

    Just rotate in the spare and you'll always be +1 tire to move.
    (that is if you have a matching one)

    That’s if I didn’t have a stock spare. Not going to put a Method wheel and BFG KO2 under there until I upsize tires.

    Outa sight gets no love unless it's functional, i.e. ARB compressor mounted under the hood.. I'm cheap that way.
