I second the unplug from inside the fender method. Super easy. Was taking the tiny sr5 “fender flares” off my truck and was halfway into it so figured I’d explore and sure enough found that quick disconnect. Just unplugged and covered with electrical tape. Now I don’t have to listen to the...

finally got around to unplugging the dang power antenna motor thats been running pointlessly every time i started it since i bought it. Plus got rid of the dang squeak in the clutch pedal. Up next is to get rid of the crossbars holding up my curt rack and mounting like the thread i found on here...

Honestly, I agree and don’t think the width gain would be worth the small height gain either. Just wanted to clarify and make sure you knew the options fully

Bumpers Beautiful build. Especially love the bumper work! hoping to build a square tube bumper(s) soon too, do you have a thread that went through your process somewhere? or could you maybe send some more close up pics? Id love to get some ideas from your work!

So a 295/70R17 are wider as you mentioned, yes. But they are also taller, the 2nd number (70 in this case) is a percentage. The height of the tire from rim to tread written as a percentage of the width (the first number). So these would be taller because 70% of 295> 70% of 285. Sent from my...

Thanks for all the options and info y’all. Excited to get some new lights inside my truck!

how do you know that you have a canadian model? Mine doesnt seem to have the cone stops either and im curious if I have a canadian model as well, or if they were maybe removed at some point

Yeah i wish i had found my way around this forum a bit better earlier on, but better late than never i guess! The guy working on it said that they had had some OEM ones bust earlier than normal on these things and wasnt sure if it was just a bad batch or what so he suggested giving the...

tips for a newbie So I just installed 2" spacers in the rear of my '97, everything stock otherwise. I noticed while doing so that my sway bar end links arent looking great, the bushings split open on me while removing them to let the axle drop further to reinstall the springs. Im wondering if I...

My rig is owned by me for about a year and a half, and I got it at like 195k miles (it was the first good condition v6 M/T I came across so I snagged it!), but I have had to have the rack and pinion replaced - with lower control arms at the same time - but one of the lower control arms crapped...
