    Some trucks are prone to a vibration in the front (driver side) after lift. The bushing replaces the needle bearing in the front diff and eliminates the vibration.

    Interesting. I have been having an issue with my abs or traction control coming on when braking into a turn going left at about 40 mph. I wonder if this could be part off the issue.

    The needle bearing shouldn't impact the ABS functionality. I experience what you're talking about from time to time too.

    So, is anyone free this weekend to drink a bunch of beer, eat some smoked food, and help work on a racecar?

    I gotta get my car back together for the next race in 3 weeks down in Folsom.

    I have basically no knowledge, but I can listen and do as told, and eat the smoked food. Legally I’m too young to drink so more beer for you

    Can't drink anymore, I use to be a great mechanic but I'm a broke dick now. All I can offer is stand there like cal trans with my shovel and nod my head every 3-5 seconds.

    My entire pit crew for the last 3 races has never touched a can am in their lives. Literally it’s a baby Toyota. If you can count to 21 without taking your shoes off and read up to 21 on tools, that’s all that’s needed.

    If you are under 21 in age, I have gatoraids and capri-suns. You just have to fight my sons for them. Also I have two spare rooms if you drink too much.

    I just picked up 2 tri-tips, so side message me if you are free and wanna do garage shenanigans
