Yea... after using a hammer for a while I got it to somewhat resemble the original part. I also had a buddy cut me out a CNC plate to weld in place and make it a bit more reinforced.

So I go out shooting yesterday, nothing out of the ordinary for my rig, some backroads out in the middle of wine country AZ and my buddy asks why my truck has a lean to it. I then notice my steering is a little off. Tracking straight and the wheel is turned right just a bit. So I go to...

Personally I prefer to have a separate GPS mounted off the windshield in the lower driver side corner. Way easier to see that way and you can keep the space for other electronics in the dash. That's my $.02... with that said, some of those units look really nice too.

Agreed. I'm running 255/85s and a 3" and in town I get 16.5mpg; on the freeway I'm up near 18-20mpg depending on the speed limit. Optimal is 60MPH State Routes... 21MPG all day son!!!

Let me know if you ever need help!

I think it would be a perfect daily in your case... Hopefully you're talking Canadian dollars? You can find them in the states in good condition for $5500.

Yea, no rush or anything... thanks.... and Mobil1

eeeeek!!!!

Jesus H Christmas! $1400!? I mean you prefaced it saying you know it's $$$$, but not what I was expecting. Looks nice tho.

What he said^

I concur that the easiest thing to do if you find yourself with a 4.30 locked rear diff and you have 4.10s from the factory is to just change out the ring and pinion in the carrier from the old axle. It really isn't that difficult and you can do it while you have all your parts pulled out when...

I have the AVS one I picked up at a "Checker" which was on sale for $40. I replaced the cheap pop tabs it came with for some used to mount motorcycle race body work. It's pretty awesome and looks clean. Don't notice any misalignments or body lines that don't match up.

The brake lines and stuff are all going to work at the full working range of the suspension as long as the factory linkages and UCAs are used. When you add extended travel UCAs or Spindles etc is when the lines won't make the full reach. Just changing spring height it isn't necessary to buy all...
