DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Rain in the forecast in BP.. might be muddy Sunday

Looks badass man!

 

Looks good.

 

Sweet that you got the trutrac installed! Any break in you have to do with it?

Thanks!

 

Nah no breakin. Ill have 350 miles on it by the time we make it to BP tho

 

Nice! Are you thinking about bigger tires?

 

It's all good man. Figured it might be easier on you if I called. I'll holler at them tomorrow, then touch base. Help me help you!

 

One day I will go to bigger tires, most likely 285's or maybe push it to 295's. I didnt plan on lifting my truck as soon as I did. I was thinking I'd wait a year for a lift but was able to work a lot of overtime and decided a lift needed to come earlier than later with the upgrades I had purchased and was planning on pruchasing. Right now I cant afford to do replace the tires for a while and the current ones only have around 9k miles on them.

 

Burn em up, no sense of wasting new tires

 

I'll wear them out from normal use, I hate wasting money. I'll prob have another 3k on them within the next month. Its looking like I'll easily put over 20k mi on the truck in its first year.

 

Whos all going to BP Sunday?

Yup I'm in for sure. Want to test the lift before Jambo. Speed bumps just dont quite give me enough testing!

 

In

 

Anyone have some free time this week to help me change out my carrier bearing? I'm getting some nasty vibes on takeoff and have a new one ready to install just need a second set of hands to help me in my garage in Fort Worth. Have all the tools and plenty of cold beer.

 

I can help Sat if need be

 

sure most nights im home by 6 and can be at your place shortly after, at some point i need to change out mine too still have the factory one with 179K on it...

 

I may be able to make time tomorrow if not I should be available saturday. I need to finish up installing my rtt and get my oba installed. I was going to try and get that done tomorrow.

 

When you hear it sometimes it makes a loud bang and you think you broke it but it's totally normal. Benefit to this over air locker is it does it automatically. My buddy has had one in his taco for 100k miles with no issues

 

I can confirm this my 06 has the Toyota LSD and when I get on it I hear a loud thud/bang from the rear of the truck

 

Tomorrow would work great for me, I can have everything ready to go if you can make it. I'm putting in a ranger bearing from IEDLS that should hold up better to abuse than the stock setup.

I'm free tomorrow after work at 5 and will happily help with your projects.

 

Lol if you follow along long enough you'll find out I'm a huge slacker. My list of "shit to do" never really gets accomplished.
