Florida B.S. Thread

that stinks, i really liked the look of your sliders with the linex. even with it repaired for free, i could see that becoming annoying when you have to keep going back to have them touched up.

the peeling off part, i have no idea about. the repainting them will bejust fine. i actually just redid mine a couple days ago. last two trips were rough on them, nad the entire bottoms were paintless. i just take some paper and tape it up on the doors and go to town.

 

Well the thing is that they won't keep fixing them for free. He showed me where the lifetime guarantee is only for inside the bed. And every time they fix it they have to tape the whole truck, and I have to leave it there a whole day. It will be a major pain to deal with. I'd like to keep it on there, it's fine against trees, but if I make a habit of hitting rocks then I might be scraping it off.

Anyone can enlighten me....?

I'm looking at Billie 5100's for the rear
I've got a 2.5" aal in rear with stock billies right now

I would like to gain some rear droop......but am unsure if these 5100's will give more droop

Either way , will they at least work with my aal ?
At least I can get a smoother ride with them if they will fit ....

Few days ago the girlfriend said she thought I might be leaking oil. Today after work I walked out to my truck and noticed about a half dollar sized mark from oil dripping off the engine onto the pavement. Touched it and it was still wet. Looks like the leaks coming from the rear passenger side of the engine, or so it looks just from looking down at the engine with the hood open.

I checked my oil and while I do need an oil change my levels aren't low. Gonna clean off the engine and the oil changed this weekend. Any ideas what could possibly the issue? Should I worry about driving my truck?

I've got 96K, so no warranty. This is the 2nd oil leak I've had, I had one at 70K and that was the crankshaft seal.

 

Timing cover leaking??? Alot of times if the cover is leaking bad enough it runs down the right side of the engine and can actually look like an oil panleak. Pop your hood and look right above your power steering pump. If it's leaking you will see it.

 

Got tapatalk on my phone, played with a fun color app, thought Jesse would like this pic!!!

 

lol. i saw it in live now here. and yeah bet he would love it.

 

Couldn't see anything that appears to be the source of the leak from popping the hood, just some oil spots on the lower portion of the engine and some oil chilling in my engine skid plate.

Crawled under the truck, got a few pics cause I honestly am not 100% sure on what I'm looking at. I'm assuming this huge black pan is the oil pan, and it looks like thats where its leaking and then running down the engine into the skid plate. Not sure if that makes sense or not.

Is this something that should have me park the truck until I can have it looked at, which is gonna be atleast a month from now. It doesn't appear to have leaked any last night while I was sleeping, so it seems it only has a small leak when running.

If I ruin the engine in this truck screwed is an absolute understatement. Now I'm paranoid to drive. Pics coming in a minute.

 

id just check your oil level regularly..if the level is fine..id think your engine would be fine.

if it gets low...id just top it off.
