    You could also buy new bearings and seals and have them pressed by a shop. That's what I do for my front bearings

    Will this be going on rain or shine? Weather doesn't bother me but I just thought I would ask because New England weather is so unpredictable we could get a foot of snow out of the blue :crazy:

    Rain or shine. I am planning on bringing at least one "pop up" to work on trucks under if it starts to rain. We can drink "adult beverages" under there as well.

    I have the the means to press bearings myself, but I'd rather support a fellow tw member. I know he does amazing work, and he has a really good system down. I don't think I'd save enough money to justify ordering the components and doing it myself either. But I appreciate the suggestion!

    To what extent will there be modding? Is a brake job too much for a Walmart parking lot?

    Hoping to get my bed lights wired, and that little relay under the steering wheel changed out to my always on relay for the 2 12volt chargers.

    Fair enough, I give my buddy That owns his own shop the business of pressing my bearings for me. Costs me like $150 a side with moog bearings (NSK)

    Well I've heard that it's better to change pads and rotors at the same time rather than just a pad slap. What are your thoughts on that?

    Realistically, how much can we do in this parking lot before they ask us to leave?

    Are the rotors warped? As in, do you feel any vibration when slowing down from high speeds?

    Swapping pads on these trucks is a piece of cake. Don't even really need tools (just a pair of pliers and a way to get the wheel off).

    No, its actually very smooth when i'm braking from high speeds. My brakes seem a little low though, but I also know that our trucks tend to have a mushy peddle

    I changed my OEM pads at around 70k and they easily had another 15 left in them.

    same rotors? Im at 63,xxx right now. I wonder if putting new pads will give me noticeably better braking, or at least better than they are now
