Alabama thread!

No worries. If I drop bumper and do the rewire I’ll do it at work. Just set the bumper on forklift and add a strap and some leveling blocks. Only hard part of the job was removing and reinstalling the bumper with the high clearance wings on it. If it weren’t angled on the wings it would be very simple.

One other hard part was when I got it up there on one side on the bolts I started jacking it up to line the other side up. That’s when I smashed the solenoid on one of the braces inside the truck so had to drop it again and remount the solenoid to the side. That was very frustrating as I was lifting this massively heavy bumper and winch combo by myself to the floor jack and then having to wheel it where I needed it and keep it balanced. Then jack blew a seal and lost all hydraulic fluid. So had to drop it down again. Definitely using forklift next time as my back felt the extra lifting of that heavy sucker.

 

Rob! You back stateside yet?

 

Yes in Auburn, of all third world sh!tholes...

 

Although it might be a bit far out lets plan for 2021. Brian said he is going in July/August and including Yellowstone. I have a Wyoming hunting trip in September so can't go with Brian as that will be my annual trip out west.

 

Hooah! War Eagle!

 

If the Athletic Dept gets widespread Coronavirus cases, I swear I’m not patient zero.

 

You'd be sitting in quarantine somewhere right about now...

 

Just talked to a guy about doing his. Told him some beer and a pizza and id throw it in for him. Ill offer you the same.

 

We have done a number of the bushings swap at Mod days over at Tacoalamode's. How bad is the vibration and how long ago did it start???

 

My health screening upon re-entry to the US was “were you in China?”. So no quarantine for me.

 

It’s not bad but it’s driving me nuts. It started right after my lift in October. Just to be double sure I’ll see what happens when I rotate my Wildpeaks this week.... this will be the first rotation at 5k

 

Are you sure it’s needle bearing and not D/S angles?

 

It does sound a lot like the driveshaft angle because it was directly after your lift.

This is where most of us did ours.

 

Tuesday.. make it a good one fellas!

 

Mornin fellas

 

Right after the lift is when most get the needle bearing vibes too.

 

Yeah, I’ve tried to read as much as I could on this.... does go away in 4wd.

I’ve checked the angles on the driveline but admittedly a bit crude.

 

Don’t be hating!!!

 

I’d bet that’s it. A lot of us have done it but a lot of us have not done anything to our driveshaft so...lol
