    I was changing my rear diff oil and found something on the drain plug magnet i didn't want to see... Metal. 20191027_153057.jpg
    At first i thought it was from an oil seal, then i checked to see if my locker still worked. It did NOT lock up when it normally does. so the last time offroading i was too hard on stuff.

    Does anyone know about the factory e-locker? How much will it cost to fix/replace?

    The abs light came on with the locker but the diff light that shows its locked only flashes now and i heard another noise back there when i tried turning it on. Im sure my drainplug has more passangers now...

    :help:

    I just resoldered my existing resistors when I fixed mine a few years ago. A prong on both resistors were disconnected. Still working good.

    Had to improvise. Picked up some 3” stainless 90degree brackets from Ace. Required a little work on the drill press, but nothing difficult. I would recommend a 3.5” bracket if you can find em.

    Nicely done! Paint the chrome bumper or just replace it with a white one? I need to swap mine as well.

    Good catch! The picture is oriented correctly as you can read the screwdriver name!

    Thank you =] It was Bumpershellz! So convenient, I was able to install by myself, which is always nice.

    What rear bumper is that? I want more clearance on the rear but need to keep the hitch. That looks like a great solution.

    Hacked together some stuff to mount the MaxTrax to the DIY rack on the topper. Hopefully I measured correctly and will be able to stack 4 when the day comes.
