    Have ECGS build them and swap them yourself. You will not find a better warranty or customer service in the industry.

    Thirded. It's not terribly hard. Time consuming yes, but not that bad.

    Didn't think about this option but will look into it. Have done everything so far but didn't want get over my head and screw up a diff with a regear. Install though seems managable.

    I recently discovered dirt every day. Which I love, because it’s awesome. Feels like I lost a friend.
    I’m completely gutted.

    I just read some Tahoe area resorts are closing today. Their expectation is for 100" at the higher elevations. A hundred inches of almost spring snow!!!! And I bet it's Sierra Cement as well. This storm is a Pineapple Express.

    Mammoth is closed today and expecting to be closed tomorrow. Looks like the second storm is coming in hot on the heels of the first. I doubt they open before Wednesday.

    Sequoia and Kings is closed. They are fearing more snow and flooding. If it starts flooding, there's a possibility of road washouts.

    I wonder what 140 looks like coming into the Valley right now? If the Merced is not already raging, it will be soon.

    Merced River Happy Isle gauge is at 3.5’ or about 700 cfs and rapidly climbing.

    flood stage is at 8’ or about 5000 cfs.

    Going to get wild. I have a cooworker who lives in El Portal and is under a flood evacuation warning.
