    Just finished my 500 miles break in, changed fluids and wired up the locker.

    definitely feels way better then what it did with stock gears. Like @hoarder23 said it was a dog! He got to drive it a few weeks back. The truck is no longer hunting for gears, holds gears and does not crazy downshift on inclines. I was worried about 5.29’s over 4.88’s but this is exactly what It needed.

    A few items waiting to be installed. Trying to maintain patients. Haha. Waiting on some of the missing items to the puzzle. Also at the same time HF had a recall on my jack stands so waiting to snag up some replacements.

    Just installed the Marlin LCA gussets on a local members 3rd gen and did an alignment and they are top notch. No joke they are 100% worth it and better IMO than TC tabs. They are also a lot more of a hassle but that's no biggie. Make sure your rack and pinion boots are protected as well as your CV boots if you leave your axles in place.

    Mine were one of the 3 model numbers, and it’s my build thread :notsure: It’s a nice way of being able to backtrack when something was purchased and/or installed

    Spent my Sunday morning installing my TC gusset spindles done by @desertjunkie760 . For those curious yes they do clear 17” Trd pro sema wheels without spacers, While everything was apart I went ahead and swapped the brake pads as well with some OEM replacements, installed front super bumps and a oil change.

    Today I was able to get out for a day run with @Prayn4surf and a buddy of mine who is not on here yet, half way through the run we had @hoarder23 meet up with us. Was a nice little shake down run since a few things were added to the truck and was able to press the new shiny button for the front locker. Ended up being a nice day out :thumbsup:
