The Lair

Damn brother you were one busy cat today.

 

I took my time as I didn't wtf I was doing half the time

Also, I need to get some stock in PB Blaster Inc. just wow.. amazing product. With that said, the damn bolts for the bumper wouldn't budge.

 

Snap them pics tomorrow of the finished product. Dont forget to show off your hard work.

 

Damn son!! Where'd you put the jack stands? Really anywhere on the frame and you'll be fine.

A propane torch would definitely help break them free. HD sells them for cheapish. I'm gonna get one tomorrow.

 

See pic for stands.. I kept the jack on just in case...it seemed fine. I'll be moving them closer to the outer frame tomorrow. I might have to visit my second home, HD too.

 

Oh yeah, that's totally fine. I always jack from there and put the jack stands on the outer part of the frame, but that works too.

 

blew a rear gear tooth on the trails today, looks like regearing is going to happen sooner.

 

Damn, that sucks. Is it still driveable?

 

Sounds expensive

 

rear binds and locks randomly, i dropped the driveshaft on trail to prevent any damage to the tc, winched and got my buddy to tow me out from the trail and to the garage on a uhaul flatbed

 

That sucks dude! It seems like the rear end is the weak point in these trucks. You aren't the first I've heard of, nor will you be the last to lose their rear end on a trail.

 

Damn, that sucks. Do you have another vehicle to drive around?

 

Wtf is up with the FNG's lately??? I posted in this thread weeks ago dibs on the roof rack if the OP decided to ship it. I just get notified of this...trying to turn it into a bidding war...

yeah ive got something for the time being

 

Ha! Shipping isn't even hard to do! People freak out about that for some reason. Throw some bubble wrap, saran wrap and tape on there and slap a label on it and it'll be fine. UPS would take them for like $30 or $40.

 

I see so many nice 3rd gen suspensions I want to get but most of them are in CA and those guys don't like to ship

 

That's easy too! Especially since they have the packaging they just recieved new suspension in. Minus leafs, that'd be a pain.

 

any idea on what the 4 series case is for the front 8" pumpkin? its an option on ecgs

 

Got a link? I don't remember seeing that when I was looking at it.
