    I’m gonna need more power to pull that.

    It’s a vicious circle.

    What is this “pulley wrap”? I’m not familiar with that term.

    @Roostfactor came up with an added idler pulley that bolts on using existing bolts. It simply guides the belt further around the snout pulley to help with slippage.

    It’s the pulley with the green center in the pic below. There’s normally nothing there where it is.

    It’s also adjustable. I have it all the way out. It could be moved in more to wrap the pulley even further.

    Went full circle back to LR UCAs. Also swapped spindles after finding one was bent.

    Also new brakes and rotors. The EBC pads I had were always noisy and didn’t last long, so I got Extreme Duty Power Stop pads this time. They’re not squeaky. We will see how they hold up.

    I have the EBC stage 5 brakes. Had them on about 3 yrs now with no issues. Sucks you didn’t have the same experience. How long did your ebc’s last?

    Mine were the EBC Green Stuff. Sounds like yours are a little higher up the product line.

    I don’t remember exactly when I put them on. They always squeaked and didn’t last nearly as long as the stock pads.

    My truck is also 6300 lbs though

    Yeah, that’s all loaded up with tools, spare parts, recovery gear, and everything to wheel.

    The only thing I ever remove is the spare driveshaft and High-Lift. No reason to have them out in the weather for back and forth to work.
