    Haven't updated for quite a while!

    New Tires: 285/75/16 BFG Mud Terrain
    CMC mod. Plus a bit of trimming.
    Color Match SSM Grill. (Go Home Chrome! you're ugly!)

    Annnnnd...
    All Pro rear bumper! Yay. I dig it, especially with the wrap around side protection. My only gripe is that now I can't fit my 285 spare underneath the truck anymore :( Hoping to possibly custom fab a swing-away tire mount onto the bumper.

    Not a damn thing like most days.
    Yesterday I picked up some 1/4" top plate spacers I need to add to my 885s to regain 1/2" of what I lost after adding sliders & a full set of skids.

    lol I drive much more than i used to. Before owning my truck i used to drive on average about 16 000 kms a year. Now i'm around 27 000 km/year. Anyways, ODO is sitting at 82 000 and warranty runs out at 100 000 so i'll be on my own soon enough.

    Have you had issues with your 4wd engaging yet?

    lol, extended warranty gotcha.

    Nope, haven't had an issue yet... but I do use and abuse it all the time too. Occasionally it will take a little bit of time... but that's the nature with an electric switch.

    Put on some bilstein 5100's@1.75 to level it out. Took about 2 hours by myself. I used the stock springs and swapped them to the new shocks using my floor jack on the LCA to unload the spring pressure. Super easy and felt safe the whole time.

    When mine was working, it always engaged/disengaged fairly quickly as well. A few guys in our local club have had to replace their actuators recently so that's why i asked. I sure hope this doesn't happen to often, especially since the dealer wants $600 for that part. :eek:

    I believe the "extended warranty" is a 7 yr/160 000km type deal. Mine is just the normal factory warranty that i got when i bought it, Powertrain 5yr/100 000km and bumper to bumper for 3 yr/60 000km.
