Mister Bill, you would enjoy shopping at our Winn-Dixie; 24 bottles of that beverage- $17.99 . My little fridge out in the Florida Room is NEVER empty .

Enjoy your time with the "laws"..

 

Lucky...my in laws require hi test.....

 

Attaboy. Also nice pool/landscaping

 

Nice pool! Did Lowes end up having that pipe you were looking for?

I ended up putting on the ARB today. I still need to figure out what I'm doing for the fog lights and wire up the IPFs. Cam is making me a set of custom mounts for my DRL kit so hopefully I'll have those soon.

Thanks again to Rob for getting me a base model unpainted bumper for cheap so I didn't have to hack up my OEM cover.

Now onto pics (good ones to come when I get the truck clean again and actually get a real camera.

 

The Magnuson Moss Warranty Act still applies but that's the legal end of it. If you put a lift on your truck and have a drive line issue like say a leaky front diff seal, bad u-joint, carrier bearing, etc, plan on the service guys giving you a hard time. Sure, the Magnuson Moss act is on your side legally, but who really wants to get into a legal battle anytime you want warranty work done? If it's serious, then you can argue and win but I would plan on repairing any minor stuff yourself so you don't have to deal with the hassle.

Nice, always loved the ARB bumpers.

 

Shouldn't you be double fisting? haha..

 

39" should work haha

 

I figured that would be the case, that stuff I would do it myself so I wouldn't worry bout the service manager being a big fuss bout it, I talked to one on Friday and he told me that they can tell if I beat up my truck or not, but who knows, im doing it next spring anyways so I have time to deal with the service guy

 

Are you seriously putting them on?

 

Lol ntc express . I'd have to do some major trimming to get those on . But I am thinking 37s if I can find a decent set.

 

Runner did awesome yesterday John!
You motivated me,exhaust is on and it's running nice,no more surging idle!
Took it around the neighborhood a few times!

 

Sweet !!
Let me know when you want to weld up the cross bars and ill swing down.

 

I have to find and buy them first.

 

Looks good Mike.

Anybody know the size of the bolt that you use to take off the rear drums?

 

I wanna say it was an m8x1.25

 

Pretty sure it's 8mm X 1.25 threads, at least 2 inches long, grade 8 is best because you're a LOT less likely to snap one off in the drum (A real PITA to fix)

 

Adjust the brakes from the small hole on the back of the drum. Cover will fall off.
Small screw driver should do it.
Not sure on the bolt though . I never do it that way.

 

Rob, I'm pretty sure Alex and Noel are correct. The bolts that hold on the factory front skid place I believe are the correct thread if you want to pull one to bring into a hardware store.

 

I think those are the one's that went to the rear of my IFS skid. If it is them then I can just use them because I already upgraded them to grade 8. Thanks guys.

 

Thanks the in laws always bring Jersey drama

I end up there sometimes

Thanks
