Running them now in Kuhmo AT51. No rub but I have a small lift.

That would be awesome! Thanks for the advice. Thats what I was thinking of doing by just adding a plate to the bottom of the OEM existing skids. I appreciate advice and would love the cut file. Thanks

I figured it’d be about 130-40. Should fit perfect since I’m just welding a plate over the existing ones and making cutouts. I have a mig welder already so it wouldn’t be much if anything in materials *♂️. Was just an idea and I was wondering if anyone else had done so since it could be pretty...

Didn’t think about bolts that could work with some countersink ones. I was planning on reinforcing the whole skid and trying to trim it to match the oem one as much as possible. I have access to a plasma cutter so maybe I’ll trace the outline as close as possible. Making an oil filter access...

Anyone ever go cheap and add an extra plate to the stock skids(non trd) to make them more durable? Was thinking of welding some plates over the existing ones for more cheap protection?

I had the same EXACT thing happen to me! It was low fluid after a transmission fluid change. Mine went about 1 month before I noticed and it temporarily resulted in some harsh shifts(almost like a torque converter lock up issues). Fortunately the lead tech went on a ride along with me and I was...

Goheels has a post about this that solved the issue for me. If you search backup camera it’ll come up. I did go heels fix and it hasn’t happened again in the last 3-4 months at all.

Another big thank you to this forum. I had a clunk coming from the front of my vehicle and thanks to the help from this forum found it was my LCA bolts that needed tightened (like most everyone else) to 129ft lbs. This is the second time this forum helped me and as my 2014 approaches 100,000...

Quick 1 night camp trip at Voyager Rock camp ground. Helped my buddy break in his Pro-4x Xterra.

I think I’m going on 2 weeks now and I’ve gotten a lot of use out of the rear hatch with no black outs anymore. Great fix, needs to be stickied!!!

About 6 threads showing on my 2014 TEP have it about 1/2-1inch lift. I tried to lower one side on the car and one off… lower the coilover before you put in on, waaaaay easier. Many suspension place will probably do it free, it takes 10 seconds if you bring the coilovers and ask them to spin the...

Can we get this stickied or under the write ups!!

I installed my Eibach 2.0 coilovers without opening the valves. I just used a Jack to compress it while I worked on the opposite side and vice versa. It really wasn’t that hard to do imo. Just have multiple jacks that go high enough and you’ll be fine.

The Eibach 2.0 set up is pretty legit too but the set up you have is also solid.

Did 2 OHV trips recently. One to Gold Lake in Plumas National Forest(5/29-30/21) and the other up Signal Peak off i80(6/6/21). Haven’t been to Gold Lake in 3 years. The last time I went I had my 3rd Gen. The 5th Gen makes it easier with ATRAC. Took one trail up the backside towards snake...
