any chance you remember the size for the bolt and nut? Might have possibly misplaced mine when taking it off and can't reference it for hardware store.

Hey yall, I have run into a hiccup installing the Whiteline LCA bushings on my passenger side. Driver side went in fine with some grit and brute force to fit the washers into their respective places. As for the passenger side, I have managed to get the front ones in and threw in the cam bolt...

I'm getting a slight flex! ill post pics. its nothing drastic but I do notice it and could be a point to improve if anyone else attempts to build something similar. obviously more flex on the passenger side due to the weight of the bearing for the swingout. if the bumper sides were the same...

sort of how the 5th gens have those low profile front bumpers that slide in, I was thinking something like that for our 3rd gens in that middle section of the rear bumper! for the tire position, I just liked the center position the best. I have some plans to throw in a table and mount a hi-lift...

here's a quick detailed summary of what was used in the build: "used 10ga for the plate steel portion. 3/16 would have been too heavy for that and weighed 50% more. The swingarm itself is 10ga and the 2x2 for the tire carrier post is 3/16”. Tire plate is 1/4" The hinge is a bushing actually...

fellas. First off shout out to OffroadGrind on youtube, Steven did great fab work in making this idea functional. My main desire in this design was to retain the body lines of the truck without getting anything too bulky or too slim (like an ultra-high clearance bumper) and I also wanted the...

I replied but it doesn't show that I did! lmk if you get it

yup! I didn't want to go with a full bumper just yet as I'm not too sold on the bulky look of some and didn't want to go for a super high clearance look either so I designed this with the help of OffroadGrind on youtube this bolt on bumper/tire carrier. We were able to retain those rear side...

i do like me a clean truck

If you get the chance that would be great. I have no idea what that is.

I haven't touched the steering rack bushings yet but they are on the to-do list. I have spc UCA's and haven't touched the LCA bushings either

im glad i wasn’t going crazy! I initially thought it was wind but the pulling of the steering wheel made me believe something more. i don't enjoy the idea of living with it so ill update this thread with more questions and/or solutions!! thanks guys

I have been getting a weird squeaking/honking noise while at highway speeds (60+). I can only slightly feel it in the steering wheel and I think it pulls me to the left sometimes. It will go off with bumps but sometimes it will be random. Background info: I have had the squeak since purchasing...

Hey all! I am looking to buy a radio bezel trim from a 2000-2002. Black is preferred as my wood grain is all cracked and falling apart. Located in Houston but I am willing to travel and am open to pay shipping costs if it's not outrageous ha! Thanks.
