    Not to sound a little inappropriate here but can we also lube my leaf springs? lol They've been squeeking. What lube should I get?

    ALSO - anyone have a grease gun? Might as well grease the zirks for the front driveshaft while we have the rig up.

    Dam you all.

    Oil pan does bug me, another member had one apart and said that the oil pickup should be far enough from the bottom of my pan that it wasnt damaged/affected.

    Still bugs me lol


    I may be working, may not. Also said id be up north on sunday for another mod day. Fml

    Might be a busy/road trippen weekend lol

    Got AC drain tube mod, EGCS bushing, could change my Tcase/front diff fluids, none if it is needed this second. May just dedicate my weekend to BBQ'in and helping the rest of norcal fix/mod their shit lol

    Changing that oil pan does sound enticing tho :anonymous:

    I need to change my transfer case/diff fluids too just hit 60k miles and haven't done it yet :(
    Got some new spark plugs delivered yesterday as well as some new tools cause ya we all need more tools right?
    Hoping to grab some UCAs and possibly an AAL or new leaf pack for this shindig???? Maybe a little late on the leafs seeing as that's probably a longer ship time if not purchased local.
