    Does anyone know what paintless dent removal rates are typically? In your respective areas of course.

    Good question... Happened twice in same spot. Thinking I might have triggered the rollover fuel shutoff? Someone mentioned that... Or I was thinking it could have possibly been my battery connection? I don't even know. If I wasnt so much in an incline (literally felt like a recliner) I would be super concerned.

    Oh I have a cup holder that's in the dash. Forgot that the 01-04s don't. My ham radio is mounted to it now.

    I keep my speaker in front of the shifter on the boot..screw mounting stuff :p haha

    How much gas did you have in the tank? If you were on a steep enough incline, for enough time, with low enough fuel, it is plausable that the fuel filter couldnt catch enough/any fuel. Just a thought.

    :notsure: difference in rim width/offset?

    I dont think I would mount it. Save on holes. Just unplug it when it's not being used. If it must be mounted, I would just put it on the side of the center console near the shifter/ pass. floor board.

    Edit: where people like to mount there maglite

    Yeah I had a good amount of fuel, about 60%. Possibly more.

    I'm at 3.75" backspace, ditched the spacers... Wheels are pacer aluminum 15x8.

    Now we are just confused..

    I don't have shit in my center console. Just the cent cubby and then one holder thing that is way to shallow to be a cup holder then it's my gear shift. The center consoles of the 01-04s are much nicer.

    My cb is the ash tray like all 1st gens. But right above my heater controls is a pull out dual cup holder. It's worthless mind you..well...not totally, it works on some cups...but barely haha makes a nice cb mike holder or ham radio display stand.

    Where as you, and I guess I :p, have two cup holders in front of of the center console then the gear shift.

    Whatever we, or rather I, am over thinking this. Sleep is calling my name!
