    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    So, I few months ago I bought some Yakima bars of FB Marketplace for my Chevy Duramax so I could carry kayaks to coast. When I went to the sellers house he was cleaning his garage out and told me to take this cargo basket as well. Score! A free basket! I looked it over last week and it turns...

    Removal of Painted Pin Stripes?

    I had painted pinstripes on a Ford Focus in 2004 or so. I used oven cleaner from Dollar General. Worked like a charm. Immediately wash car after just in case but I had no problems with it.

    Ko2's or ?

    I drive up to the mountains in Colorado frequently during the winter when there is snow and ice for skiing and such and I have seen a fair amount of rigs running a Goodyear tire called Ultra-terrain. Supposedly good in snow and ice and even sandy beaches. Best of both worlds. I'm on KO2s now as...

    Eibach Pro-truck lift

    Congrats! You will love the way this lift rides. I need some skids and sliders as well. Thinking about the ARB skids since I can get free shipping from Amazon and they are the least expensive.

    Let's see those black 5th Gens!

    Yay! I can finally add mine now. Installed an Eibach Pro-Truck lift for 2.75/1. Threw the old 285 KO2s on. Plan on swapping them out for some Falken Wildpeak ATW3s in the next week or so. A little flexing. :)

    Eibach Pro-truck lift

    Put the old rims off my Silverado 1500 on the Runner this evening. They are 17x9 American Outlaw wheels with 285/70/17 BFG KO2 tires. They easily fit. I have about an inch from the tire to the UCA. I may just keep the wheels and put some new Falken ATW3 tires on them. It got dark on me and I...

    Eibach Pro-truck lift

    I just recently installed the kit over the weekend and the pictures I posted does look like the front is higher. I took these immediately after the install was complete. Since driving around for a couple of days the front has settled and it is pretty much even all around. If I was to do it again...

    Will it fit? Or will it hit?

Wheel Specs: • Diameter: 17 • Wheel Width: 9 • Bolt Pattern: 6-139.7/5.5"-0.0 • Offset: -10 • Hub Bore Size: 106 • Weight: 28 • Finish: Silver • Wheel Accent...
