    yeah unique parts to ur truck would be a good idea... but oem parts i wouldnt worry too much. my parts manager is a rad guy, he always helps out.

    btw, ur wheel bearing idea already pressed with a new hub is probly the number 1 part i would bring if i had a second gen... they just dont make wheel bearings like they used to :)

    haha yes

    Haha, that works. I'll actually have a sufficient emergency fund this year in case something happens. Got lucky last year and didn't have to use any of it.

    You think the O'reilly in town would have tie rod ends for us in stock? Just curious if it would be a good idea to pick some up or just get one there if I happen to break one.

    tie rods are rather cheap for a spare part and good to have as there's not many ways to limp off a trail (that I know of) without it.

    To answer the question, yeah, they'd probably have it. If not, it would probably only be a day out for them to get it.

    short box comes with a short drive shaft at least. haha. I can fit one, but the problem is that is goes sideways in the bed and makes it a bitch to pack everything around it...
