Looks very interesting!

Should be a good option to those looking at Cooper ST Maxx and Toyo RT's

Re: Rear hop between 45 and 50 mph, anyone else?

It is possible (although very remotely) that the oil in your rear diff is so worn out, your getting chatter from that. I know when my rear diff oil was shot, I would get a chatter when turning left or right. Changed out the oil, noise was gone. Could also be any of the things you mentioned. Fresh a...

Re: Flashing rear locker after being on the highway, sensor

Thanks for the tips, the oil is fresh, and I cleaned the magnets when I was in there as well as adding a filtermag.

The oil was dirty however not that bad (original oil at 40K, no towing or hauling).

I will keep an eye on it, if it only happens on the highway my suspect is heat causing an issue.

Now that you mention it I also notice it goes away after a bit and I only notice when it first starts.

Hmm, wonder WTH could possibly be the cause.

Rear hop between 45 and 50 mph, anyone else?

So I have been getting mild hopping feeling between 45 and 50mph for a while and can't seem to figure it out. Tires have been balanced twice, rotated and it makes a little difference but not much. The old tires did this as well but not as bad (almost like its getting worse). I have heard/read everyt...

Flashing rear locker after being on the highway, sensor out?

Howdy, Just got back from a 600mile round trip and about halfway in on the trip out the rear locker light started flashing. Got there and driving around town the next day the light never came on (mostly around town with a little 55mph). Coming home after driving around town again and about 30 miles ...

Thinking of upgrading my trackbar, Carli or Thuren?

Howdy,

Looking to tighten up the front end on my truck, both bars seem top notch, is one better than the other for the price difference?

My truck that is a street queen 90% of the time with some mild/slower offroad exploring, I will be doing some overland shocks at the same time (truck has 43K).

I decided to try and fix it recently by adding some dynamat extreme to the stick and low and behold it is much, much quieter and no more singing 6th gear lol. I add...

Just passing along a FYI in regards to Volant intakes and the powercore filter (at least for a 3rd gen). I really like the Volant intake on my truck as its a true cold air and keeps the factory resonator (for torque) however I have had issues wit the powercore filter fitment. The powercore does not ...

Re: Power Wagon snow plow

On the 3rd gens you have to Fab or modify the mount to keep the winch (shares the same mounting points). I have seen a early 4th gen with a Boss on it that kept the winch but it made the truck useless with the mount hanging so low. I would look at a Western if you do a plow, you can take receivers o...

Re: Plastic bed insert or rubber mat?

I have a BedTread with the molar rubber mat in mine.

I don't haul/use the bed a lot however I really like this combo.

I got the BedTread cheap off eBay and have no complaints, might be something to look at, more commercial use friendly over the bedrug.

He said no change in sound when turning. But highway speed is where wheel bearings will show themselves. Loading and unloading each side would tell you which one easily.

I know trying to diagnose a noise over the interweb is almost impossible, but some of you might have experienced this.
