    Took the pic off the owners website. From what he's posted, seems like he takes the truck out on trips.

    Any suggestions on a good CV axle replacement. Going to do the ECGS bushing while I'm at it. Which brings me to ask the question does anyone have the tools they are whoring out?

    Looking for rear mud flaps. Now that I bought a trailer I am gonna need to put some back on. I ripped the stock ones off the first time I was off road. I am thinking I want some that I can take off easily and goes down pretty low. I have been searching but I don't know which would be best. Husky, weathertech, rockblockz. Anyone got a suggestion for longer flaps to protect my travel trailer?

    You know I didn't even think about that! That would save me some money and get the right size. Thanks for the great idea!

    Anyone have any ideas on how someone could stiffen up the factory front bumper? Mine seem wiggly and loose.

    probably missing some clips or bolts I guess

    Anyone know if I could replace the center console & front seats of my 2nd gen 2.7L access cab (auto trans) with the front seat (bench) from a single cab (auto)? I was looking at my uncles single cab auto and the shifter plus its housing looks pretty similar to mine.

    I've always wanted to have a bench seat in my car ever since my family got rid of the '81 suburban but wasn't able to commit to a single cab taco.

    I would say it would be a lot of work but probably doable. My guess is that the seat mounting points are going to be the same but the fact the center is very different that it might not fit. It will depend on what your truck is equipped with also if you have an inverter it is going to be a problem because it sits right between the seats under the center counsel. I assume you don't though because it is a 2.7. Other then that the mounting points for the center (shifter) most likely being different also I would think if you took your seats out and the center, the bench would fit.

    Thanks for your input! Maybe if I find schematics of both cars that would help, what do you think?
