    Did you order all 6 switches? Or did you just wire everything for the future?

    I gotcha. It's supposed to be nice and warm here this weekend so I may try to at least get the light tabs welded on. Then probably the next weekend get everything wired up. But we will see.

    One of the U-joints started squealing again.... Greased them one at a time to try to see which one was bad. But it didn't stop....

    Smells like burning metal when I drive a decent distance.... :(

    Maybe it's not the u-joints? :notsure:

    It's probably just your engine getting ready to blow up. Or your transmission. I wouldn't worry about it.

    haha just kidding of course. I had a bad squeel not too long ago but it randomly went away. Still not sure what it was...You sure it's a U-Joint? Does it get louder/faster the faster you go?

    Pretty sure... But I could be completely wrong.

    It's done it twice before, and has gone away both times I regreased the u-joints. But now it won't go away at all...

    It does is only at certain speeds under load very quietly, and does it at those same speeds very loudly under no load.

    Nope. Means it has to be drivetrain/brake related.

    You sure it's a u joint? Carrier bearings sqeal too. Does it do it in reverse? I took my old one off and the bearing race had worn a groove in the cage from where the rubber was breaking down. My new one's squealing (just needs to be repacked with more grease) and I'm too lazy to take it back off, I just turn my radio up haha. Waiting to get in my house when I have a garage :D

    It did it in reverse once yesterday, hasn't done it since. Went away last time I regreased everything. How much of a pain is it to re-grease/replace the carrier bearing?
