    Just under 2 hours for the whole process! Thank you to Miguel, Carlos, and team at Premier for getting this done. So happy and HUGE thank you to @SoCalTacoTruck for hosting this group buy and saving us lots of money.

    9C64CEAB-9C5F-4757-944C-271CFBE3740C.jpg Ugh. I wish I could report completely good news for today. Gears felt great, during my breaks I checked the truck for leaks, everything fastened down, etc. Got back home to San Diego, let the truck sit for an hour and come out to check only to find my front driver's side CV is leaking. Sent pictures and a video over to Miguel and they're going to fix it, but have to make the 1.5 - 2 hour drive back up....

    Here's another thing for you guys to check prior to leaving Riverside. Check the play between the CV axle and the front diff to ensure there's no leaks/excess play. Unfortunately it didn't leak during any of my breaks up in that area.

    Smack CV in with a flathead, clean off the fluid, drive it, then check again. I've had this happen so many damn times.

    I've had no issues and I've driven the most miles out of everyone (unless someone has done 3,000+ miles on rear and 450+ miles on front)

    Kinda annoying having these leaking CV issues, but again, you can't really tell its going to happen till you put some miles on it.

    Yeah, did that first. Took a pry bar and mallet to try to get it seated, drove another set of highway/street miles, still a good amount of leaking. It's okay, we'll get it resolved. The gears feel good!

    With all these issues I’m wondering if any of those that got lockers installed are having any issues with the lockers? Anyone test them yet?

    Zero issues to report here as well, and I have put almost as many miles on as SoCal in the last few weeks. As soon as the break ins were done I was testing these things to the fullest.

    Sorry to hear this. Glad they're going to fix it. It sucks you have to drive from San Diego to get it done though.

    Yeah seems like 1/5 has issues. There are also tons of people who are getting their gears done and arent on this thread anymore.

    Long shot and not thread related, but any chance someone from the gear crew is up by Monrovia and has a 3rd gen long bed mat I could trace onto a sheet of plywood this weekend? Changing my bed build and would like to avoid spending $90 for a stencil..... thanks regardless.
