    I went w 16” wheels and 285/75 because I think 17’s look a little big on a first gen. I’m doing 285/70 or 75 - 17 on my 3rd gen for sure.

    Got my driver's side axle rebooted using the walkthrough by @turbodb . Spent 30-45 minutes trying to pop it back in with no luck, going to have to try again tomorrow.

    It’s an easy job as long as the cam adjusters aren’t seized. Just a little time consuming if you do the energy suspension version, I can give you some pointers to make your life easier. I’ve done 2 of those kits now.

    The 3m headlight restoration kit works incredibly well. If the toothpaste doesn’t work, that kit is very well worth the money.
