    Was doing a some things on the rear today and got a good pic. That drum was squeaking a tad every so often so I tried a few things.

    Ive been tinkering with a brake line extension spacer. I originally used 2 grade 8 nuts and a longer bolt. Worked fine but I realized I could space it out some more. I figure I'm settled in at about 2 - 2 1/2 " in the rear so I don't think new lines are necessary. So here's 2 options I came up with. I settled on the solid spacer instead of the bracket. The bracket gave an extra 1/8" of space but the spacer looks cleaner and feels more solid.

    The bracket

    The spacer, I am using this

    You called it. Was at a friends river house and have to drive some dirt access roads to get in and out. And it rained in SoCal this last week. Amazing, happens like 4 times a year. So don't worry it already got taken care of. :thumbsup:

    So last week I started hearing this thumping going on behind the glove box. So I found the issue. I'm glad I got the 100k platinum warranty. It's already paid for itself. Anyway the stepper motor for the inside, outside vent flap was having a seizure when closed. I'm also glad I have a good service department I deal with. It's never a haggle and they inspect on sight if requested so you don't waiste your time. :thumbsup: They gave me a loaner to boot!

    It's the little motor on the left with the wire connected


    I paid $0. The $56 was for 2gal of coolant for a flush

    Stock spare at the moment. You make a very good point there. Shit, my front tire is pretty close to the spindle as it is! Really want a new wheel and tire set up, but thats not happening anytime soon lol.

    I will definitely take that spacer man!

    As discussed, I found a brand new full size spare wheel on the cheap. Now I know I should get a 285 tire but I use my bed and not quite ready for a tire carrier bumper so I opted not to waste a brand new 265 and use it for now. It fits nicely in the stock location and I don't have to carry a wheel spacer. And side by side it's not that much smaller.



    If anyone needs a stock steely let me know
