  1. šŸ‘ letā€™s start over šŸ˜‚ what should I do about this? The rubber boot is busted and grease is oozing out. Is it even a big deal?
  2. They got the guy. I was on the phone with dispatch while I tracked the truck in real time because he had his iPhone next to the air tag. It was wild we confronted him and he wouldnā€™t leave, the cops came and got him.
  3. My rig was stolen a few weeks ago. I got it back 2 hours later because I had an Apple air tag in it They pulled the back door out of the trim and wiggled in. They started it with scissors formed in the shape of the key. I canā€™t put my key in now, I have to use the scissor to start it.
  4. For now Iā€™m just going to replace the pan gasket to see if it leaks less, then try to find the vent plug.
  5. When you say ā€œopening the trans to replace itā€ would you say itā€™s possible to get to it by just draining and removing the pan or actually opening the whole dang thing? Will the vent plug be similar to the vent plug on the differential?
  6. Transmission has had a leak ever since I bought it. Iā€™m trying to find out where itā€™s coming from. What is this that I have circled, a gasket or a bushing? How do I remove it?
  7. First pic is inlet, second pic is outlet. The thing Iā€™m confused about is the inlet size of the muffler which has 2.625 inch inside diameter. Would the 2.5 inch clamp be too small?
  8. Got it all off! Used cutting tool, hammer and chisel. Any suggestions for type of muffler? My nephew loves helping out! IMG_1637.MOV
  9. Muffler needs to be replaced. Cut it off today. Hope I didnā€™t mess up. Should I try to remove the weld and reuse the pipes?
  10. I just donā€™t want to get into this job more than I already have. Iā€™m gonna return the airbags, set the truck and see how it rides. If Iā€™m not happy I will add the overloads like WME suggested, and if thatā€™s still not enough I will go for the Ride Control air bags or something that is closer to the size of the T-9. Iā€™ve done a lot to this truck so far and I donā€™t want to go down the road of metal work. I appreciate all the input everyone had included on this job and this site. Thanks to all yā€™all!
  11. I have not set the truck on the ground. What are oem overloads? Are you saying since they are stiffer why bother with airbags? I have until March 17 to return.
