i will get those priced at Camelback, see how much they are

unfortunately he could not find any better shock absorbers for my truck other than OEM quality, the rest he said for my situation are not of good quality
i was really hoping i could get a smoother ride on these local garbage roads

 

kitchen faucet is leaking, I want to replace the basin as well but I'm feeling lazy and have a bunch of other projects going on

maybe I'll ask my buddy if he wants to do it for some spending cash

 

Yes, mostly concerts now

 

any questions?

 

@Kwikvette

 

No shit?!

You're ahead of me by a mile now.

 

my bad - no it was one I saw and was going to send you the info but apparently its out of an 03 which seems odd since it should be pushbutton and not jshift. oh well.

 

Oooh

 

Ah gotcha!

Cross your fingers for me for this Friday; apparently I'm supposed to get double pay for the month of December.

If I'm not happy with it (since that $5k tax hit that suddenly came up), I'm going to request more.

From there, I may want to buy a transfer case already.

Why the transfer case first? So I can twin stick mod it.

 

Sexy wheels.

Can I rub my junk on them?...

 

@Area51Runner the parts you got recently, everything check out OK?

Those CV axles alone more than made up for it even if something else needed replacing.

 

Yes

 

Needs to loose the mustache and the grandpa steps.

 

I like bug deflectors

 

still researching - might need to replace bearings, might not. may just need to be pressed in a bit more on that one side.
facepalm moment but I may just go the easy route and do manual hubs. Been doing a ton more reading on the conversion. I'm not sure if ADD/JShift will require that 4WD ECM. The trans relay is only 50 bucks but that ECM is expensive.
If I do decide to abandon ADD/Jshift, all this will be going back into the marketplace

not sure, still reassessing my plan. been digging up lots of old info off the internet wayback machine for the ttora wiki before it went MIA. Some good info out there, just have to dig. Was one dude on TW who was really kicking ass with his conversion and the build after. Sadly he vanished off TW in August 2019 and hasn't been back. Would love to pick his brain with what he did. He had ADD and the front was locked constantly. Interesting approach. @RoberTacoma28, what happened to you brother... hope you're doing well. Your posts were good reading

 

Yeah I'll pull the steps soon, thankfully they're frame mounted so they should come off real easy. I kinda like the hood guard. But for how often I'm driving it I probably don't need it.

 

IIRC my steps were frame mounted too. Rear bolts were easy, front were annoying cause they bolted to the crossmember, not the frame.

 

My 04 is J shift. Pushbutton was an option.

 

Stick with 02 and below and it shouldn't be an issue.

Just get a j shift transfer case and you'll be golden.

You'll be able to utilize your ADD setup; as for the PCM and all I thought that was specific to 03/04? And specific to the push button transfer case?

J shift requires manual input, which in turn sends a signal out to your ADD to engage/disengage when you shift to 4HI or 4LO.

Dan cleared the j shift question we both had when asked about how the ADD knows if it's going into 4x4 or not.

 

Rock chips and pin stripes add character; least that's my excuse for my beat up truck....
