Thanks for the info. I mostly drive pavement (ok, so, I always drive pavement thanks to 80 hr work weeks, lol) so I got the .083. Triple-measured the flange patterns. They came out to 60x60 at the differential and 66x66 at the transfer case. Flange to flange length was 48.5". With tax, it was...

Has anyone ordered a rear drive shaft for a 99' or similar from Tom Woods? I had a 3' Toytech lift several years ago and never had issues but lately I've had some bad rumbling at highway speeds and the typical "clunk" that says it's time to replace ujoints. When I checked I found that the rear...

Thanks for the recommendations. Some good options to parse through over the next few days.

So, my commute situation is about to change, and I need to replace my tires in the next couple of weeks. Current Setup: - Tires: BF Goodrich KM3's (285/70R17) - Wheels: Fuel D557 Anza (17x8.5 w/ -6mm offset)(4.45 backspacing) I had the BFG's installed around the beginning of the pandemic, and...

My lead time was close to a year. I finally got around to installing them and could not get the aim anywhere near where it was supposed to be. The headlight was also not tight in the housing. So, I took the lights out of the Eagle Eyes housing and put them back in my OEM housings and everything...

I wish the forum just had the option to donate for an ad-free experience. The problem with running ad blockers for me is that half the sites that I visit force me to turn off the extension before I can view the content

I tried searching for this but I'm probably not using the correct search terms. Is there a power supply to tap that is only hot when the vehicle is in drive? For example, if you had a halo that you wanted to only be on when the vehicle was in drive but would otherwise be off when the vehicle was...

So I'm letting them do them, I asked about overlap labor and they knocked one hr of labor off, lol. It's sort of ridiculous but I just don't have any time to work on the truck until at least the summer and stuff like the brakes and ball joints were making me nervous. I prefer my own work but if...

I'm having new OEM axles replaced at the stealership and was thinking that I might have them do LBJ's while it's there. I've had the truck for about 5 years and the previous owner was pretty meticulous with maintenance but I don't know how old the LBJ's are. I've done the shovel test and the pry...

This is almost a carbon copy of my experience. Ordered black Friday of 2020 and received in late October 2021. I reached out at about 6 months (lead times were stated at 3-4 months when I ordered) and received a polite response, but I agree that it would be a good idea to push updates to...

replaced the plugs, wires and #2 coil with OEM and all is well.

They are about 2 years old w/ 20k miles. They are "import direct" brand that a local mechanic put on. I picked up OEM from stealership yesterday and plan on putting them on today along with Denso plugs.

Headed to pick up plugs and wires and a coil from stealership but wanted to post some pics to see if anyone can glean something from the condition of the plugs. Denso plug from cylinder 1 (no misfire) NGK plug from cylinder #3 (has a misfire) Coil 1 on the left, coil 2 on the right

I was on my way to Home Depot and after a sharp right turn my check engine light came on and the truck started running rough. I pulled over and had hooked my reader up and it was showing a P300, P304, P305. I cleared the codes and drove another few miles and check again and now it has a 300...

After waiting a solid 11 months, my BX built lights finally came in. Now just two more 80-hr weeks and then vacation and I can actually put them in.
