    Mystery connector / device under trunk area?

    Anyone know what this thing is under the trunk area? 2015 limited with third row seats. From what I've seen, not all third row trucks have it. Thanks!

    Axle housing cracked, ghetto fix for beater?

    I got a bush/parts rig and the axle housing is cracked by the upper trailing arm mount. Someone has attempted a fix before. What's the best way to do a ghetto repair on this? Can I weld it up or am I going to burn everything down? Axle is full of oil which I assume would catch on fire. I have...

    Ko2's or ?

    I've been running the Falkens and they're amazing on snow and ice. Drove down an iced up road, then hopped out of the truck and realized it was a skating rink pretty much. They do seem to be wearing fast, and it doesn't even get that hot here. Have about 20K KM / 13K miles on them now and they...

    Headroom???

    '00 Limited with power leather can move the bottom cushion up and down. Edit: even with the seat bottom lowered all the way, there's still lots of space under the seat. I have an amp under mine. The brackets could potentially be modified and lowered.

    Help me diagnose a knock

    Can someone with a more experienced ear tell me what this knock might be? I don't think its the PCV, but can't quite locate it. I did a compression test and am getting over 200 in all cylinders. 300K KM / 192K miles. Should I be concerned? <iframe width="1903" height="778"...

    Interior Hatch Release (quick & dirty)

    I wanted an interior hatch release for sleeping in the truck. I also didn't want to spend any money, or more than an hour of time. The process is a little more complex due to the 4R's rear window party trick. Here's what I came up with. Parts -Bike brake cable -Bike cable housing -2 end...

    Rear Bearing Puller/Press Tool Loaner Program

    Second truck is also done now! Everything looks to be holding. So nice having brakes again. A word of advice to anyone going down this road, you don't need the seal puller, but you absolutely need a seal driver. Will hold onto the tool for the next person, or whenever you want it back. Please...

    Looking for insight on rear lift

    5100's with the 906 and I wouldn't say they are harsh. 906 has almost the same spring rate at the 891. For comparison I had moog tall springs before and they were way too soft, lots of roll going around corners. 906 spring rate = 220lbf/in 891 spring rate = 210lbf/in...

    Underseat subwoofer fitment with Weathertech of Husky floor mats

    If you have power seats there is no way it's going to fit. My small-ish amp barely clears the driver seat bottom when it moves front to back. And that's with no floor mats. Also, consider getting a real sub. I had one of those all-in-one units and it was really disappointing. Ended up with a...

    Rear Bearing Puller/Press Tool Loaner Program

    No worries! I live close to the border, and have an address in WA for receiving packages. (We mostly like to huddle along the 49th parallel for warmth anyways. :canada:) I don't want this to get pricey or complicated for anyone. I'll PM you my info. Thanks again! Edit: I PM'd my info, but it...

    Rear Bearing Puller/Press Tool Loaner Program

    weekendclimber, you are a legend for making the tool available! As others above said, a deposit might be a good idea to make sure it doesn't wander off. (Also, if you kept a few bucks for the administrative beer fund I would be totally cool with that.) :beer: Add me to the list please, I've...
