    The more that you use WD40 to fix squeaks the worse the squeaks will get. It removes moisture and will dry up the grease that's in there until it becomes a hard crust. Try a penetrating oil, or just regular oil, instead and it will soften up the grease inside. Better yet, try grease.

    I used WD40 on my carrier bearing squeaking and never squeaked again in the next 4 years I owed the truck. What your saying makes sense. But thought I’d throw in my experience.

    Thank you and I like them. They're a good tire the one you see in the picture has taken a few hard hits and never lost air or anything like that. These are load C so I imagine the load E version can take a beating. They have great street mannerisms so if your truck is your daily it's not a terrible ride.

    Nice how much louder did it get. I've been wanting to do headers on mine for a whole but always put it off. How bad was the install?

    Did the Uni filter mod today. After 101,000 miles the foam filter was still in relatively good shape. Still, would rather have the uni filter on there than the stock foam. Too inexpensive and easy to not do.

    I knew I wanted bronze rims as I just love bronze/gold on blue. Probably because I’m an ex-Subaru guy.

    I like dark wheels on white. Some manufacturers have a very dark bronze that could look cool.

    Finally got my plates and installed the rear one. Really don’t want to drill into my front bumper though. Police don’t seem to care in the slightest here so I’ll go outlaw for a bit.
