    I didn't before because I was drooling over the ARB box right next to it.

    Air hose and compressor. Settle down. No need for a front locker for what I'm gonna be doing with this truck. It's got enough traction from factory. These things run out of clearance before they run out of grab.

    Thats a nice part pile. You sure you need that winch? I would be glad to take it out of the pile.

    No I knew it was a compressor cause I remember you saying you wanted OBA. I love the ARB OBA but I think a tank is probably going to be my route if I do OBA.

    Geez can't a guy be envious anymore? :rolleyes:

    You can PM me an offer. Everything has a price ;) I'll go ahead and tell you Amazon is less expensive than what I would sell it for :D

    :laugh: Fair enough. Most of the time all anyone talks about is locker locker locker. My bad, that's on me for assuming. You may continue to envy my parts pile!

    Never got her above 55 because of break-in, took the back roads home...was running about 1800 in 55, but I'm pretty sure that was 4th gear...Let you know about interstate when I get around to it, but from what I understand most people run 2300 or so @ 70mph.

    3x30min heat and cool cycles, then 500mi of around-town driving with varying speed. Then change the diff fluid and you're good to go. I'll be DD'ing the truck for the next couple weeks to go ahead and get that over with. Did 2x30min cycles on the way home, luckily there's a bypass loop around my town, so if you sneak over here tomorrow night you'll be able to see me doing laps on it :rofl:

    I'd give the diff at least 30 mins each cool I did 45 min between 30 minute legs on the way home. Just pulled over and read a book for a while on the side of a state highway.

    You're telling me. I can tell you now, if they don't the whole e-locker axle is going bye-bye and something else is taking its place, and it's going to have a big fucking ring gear.

    Looking forward to getting them onboard. Gonna try to get the roof rack on tomorrow after work. Plus some more driving around town to continue the gear break-in.

    very cool. i love the way roof racks look on these trucks. what exactly is then install process for them? guess there'll be some drilling, but will you have to mess with the headliner and all that on the inside or is there some magnet action that comes in to play?

    The roof rack is an easy install. The rubber strips on the roof pull off and the racks bolt into existing holes.
