    true once you sas the truck basically all the skids are useless and you have to build all custom.

    That was quick. That's a huge help thanks. I'm not sasing tomorrow. Gonna be a while still.

    Can you take out that spacer and run the tcase skid right on the crossmember?

    truck is just outside so i thought i would just snap some quick before i forgot. unfortunately no the spacer can't be taken out without reworking the mid skid. basically the back end of the mid skid needs to be brought up 1 inch, then the spacer can be removed.

    im going to be doing that soon to my skids for the extra clearance now that my exhaust crossover is out of the way.

    its barely any work at all. just going to cut the mid skid, then cut a 1 inch strip to weld in vertically right after the rear suspension cross member, that will take up the space that the spacer would occupy. will probably add a few gussets on there as well so i know it will be able to take the weight of the truck.

    depends if it will work with his front skid. if he has to shell out an extra 200 for a front skid because it won't work with his current one, he may be better off modifying one that will.

    So I replaced 3/4 idler pulleys tonight. Gonna replace one more tomorrow maybe(one was wrong). One was whining away like crazy so I figured I would replace them all.

    My lower uniball bolt was LOOSE AGAIN. What the FAWK. So stupid. I'm probably gonna tack weld it on. It can not keep loosening off, it's going to become a big problem.



    Feels good to have a quiet truck.

    Now I have to fix the leak in my tire(screw).

    They were coming loose. I tighten them TIGHT without stripping obviously. And I tuned the bolt and special nut because it became loose about a dozen times and took out the threads in dusy. I went to fastenal and got a new nut and bolt, lock washer, and threadlocker. Came loose twice since then.
