DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Yes I am.

 

Good Morning Jason

 

Morning Maner

 

Y'all have any recommended/trusted shops north of Dallas (I'm in Celina)? Need to change tranny/diff fluid and haven't had a lot of time get it done myself.

 

Goode or Smith are closer than Tandem, but idk their availability.

 

Afternoon ladies!! What’s been up??

 

Good evening Brandon
Just working and having a few beers cleaning the shop

 

He lives

 

Haha yes he does live.

 

Just waiting on beer:30. Desperately need to clean the garage tonight and go buy an engine stand tomorrow.

 

Whats up man!? Same old same old here, just getting ready for some on the truck next weekend.

 

Noice!! I finally got some OME leafs on the way to get rid of my blocks and flat factory leafs. I’ve acquired a new intermittent vibration between 20-30 mph so I’m on the gremlin hunt.

 

I'll add it to the mental calendar, but I'll plan to be there that day with the ECGS tools. Will get with y'all later for an address/directions.

I saw your truck at Harbor Freight the other day. I didn't see you though.

 

I'm kinda chasing the same but all the time, more noticeable at higher speeds. I figure its a good excuse for a new suspension and when that doesnt fix it I'll start looking into the drive shaft(which is likely the actual cause in my case). My drive shaft has a small gash in it but it could also be a bad Carrier bearing or less likely the u joints(which I couldnt feel any play in when testing them).

 

Sounds great, I just sent you a text with my newer cell number so you have it.

 

Texted you the info to pass on.

 

Yeah there’s a good chance it was me. Started refining furniture on the side so I been picking up a couple things here and there.

 

I was thinking mine might have been an injector problem or something motor related but the more it happens the more I’m thinking it’s the carrier bearing, its got a little play but not what I would think it would have to have to make the pretty rowdy vibrations it makes.

 

Damn we all got bad vibes

 

Yeah if the new leafs and a new carrier bearing don’t fix it then I’m trading’er in for diesel JL. I’m tired of not having 4 wheel drive and I’m not about to drive a Camry with a truck Halloween costume on. Lol
