    JDfab lower control arm pivot kit and tundra rack compatibility

    Looking into the JDfab 2.25 long travel kit along with their LCA pivot kit and trying to plan for future mods along with it. I may at some point want to upgrade to the tundra rack and am curious if I'll have issues with compatibility between the tundra rack and LCA pivot kit. I know not many...

    Mounting a Pro Eagle jack

    Trying to figure out the best way to mount the 2 ton pro eagle I just got. I have the mount. Was thinking of slapping it next to my spare tire in the front of the bed. Just worried about the weight of it possibly over stressing the rail/bed. Anybody have ideas or pics on how they mounted theirs...

    Which bumper would you choose?

    I can never make my mind up about which bumper I want. I think I'm down to these two now. Which of these would you choose? BAMF or Relentless fab? Or suggest another that you like. These were on the lighter side for full steel bumpers I could find that I liked.

    Help! Hum/grinding sound when applying gas at highway speeds

    So this has been an ongoing issue and I’m honestly stumped at this point. I only notice it at highway speeds between 50-80. Basically I’ll be going along and I’ll come off the gas and coast, but right when I start to apply the gas again I’ll hear and feel a slight hum and almost light grind...

    Softopper camping

    For anyone that has a softopper and camps out of the bed I thought I’d share this here. Looks like a cool concept from a small company. I’m interested in getting one for sure. And yes I know softopper has a tent add on on their website. It’s nice to have options though and I think this looks...

    Help! Pinion seal going bad

    Long story short, sounds like my pinion seal is going bad again for some reason. The truck is regeared and has been for over 20k miles. Had the rear diff rebuilt about 4-5k miles ago because a bearing gave out. Now it sounds like my pinion seal is going out. I’m assuming this because I can hear...

    Performance NEED HELP! Differential master install kit

    Anyone have any hookup for a rear diff master install kit? I’ve called close to 10 places and no one has any or any idea when they’ll be getting any.

    Help! Drivetrain whine

    So my truck has been regeared to 5.29's for almost 10k miles now. Ever since I had the work done my drivetrain had a bit of a whine more so when I'm at highway speeds. Didn't really think to much of it because I've never had a regeared truck before and figured it was normal. Decided to look into...

    Backwoods adventure mods Bumpers

    Help! Screeching sound when turning

    I started having this weird screeching sound almost like nails on a chalkboard when I turn left only. We got some much colder weather that blew in the last few days and that’s when it started. Only happens when I just start driving and when I make that first left turn. If the truck sits for a...

    Help! Hypertech issues

    So I recently installed the hypertech speedometer recalibrator. I downloaded the software and made sure everything was up to date like the instructions said. I put my tire and gear info but I haven’t seen any correction in the speedometer. In fact I think it made it even more off lol. I...

    solar charging my battery

    So I'm upgrading to a group 34 odyssey extreme battery. As I understand it, our stock alternators don't put out enough juice to keep these larger AGM batteries fully charged. So I started looking into solar as a way to keep it fully charged. Specifically I've been looking at the Cascadia hood...

    Off-road racing

    I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s into off-road racing. Been watching some of the king of hammers racing and it reminded me how I’ve always had a dream of racing lol. I didn’t grow up racing and don’t have the money to get into it but it would be an absolute dream to get into it. Anyone...

    Electrical relay/fuse box relocation

    Does anyone else have this small relay/fuse box that's bolted to the fender next to the main relay/fuse box? I just installed my power trays and need to figure out a spot and way to relocate and mount it. I'm thinking about just screwing it to the main fuse box but I'd like to hear everyone's input.

    Power tank vs arb compressor

    What’s up peeps, just like the title says, tank vs compressor. Which would you choose? Why did you choose one over the other? main reason I would want a compressor is for an air locker. Unless there’s a better option out there for a front locker. Arb air locker and compressor was the route I...

    What’s up peeps, just curious what tools and possible spare parts you guys either do carry with you or would suggest to carry with you while out adventuring or for an extended trip off the grid. I have a general idea but would love to hear some input from more experienced folks.

    Dirt king vs icon Ball joint/delta joint UCA’s

    Been looking at the dirt king ball joint tubular upper control arms and icon delta joint arms. They both seem pretty similar. The moog ball joints would be a lot easier to get if I need to replace especially if I’m on the trail. Most parts stores should have them. But I’ve heard good things...

    Wheel spec confusion

    I’m looking at getting scs ray 10’s. Looking at their website though they offer them in 17x8.5 with 4.30 backspacing and 17x9 with 3.50 backspacing. I’m not very knowledgeable about wheel specs so I’m wondering if there’s a big difference between the two or should I prefer one over the other...
