  1. I have read your post mentioned at the top. A page scroller as usual. And I do think I'm going the repacked route. Just a little more oomph. Now, with the statement about locking the front diff first, would it then be rational to pack the front diff a little tighter than the rear?
  2. Hey, bro. I'm in the middle of mine, as we speak. Some thing I'm curious about, how the eff do I find out how many tooth/lugs does mine have? I've seen things with 42 tooth and 12 lug and no idea where to count what... Ps. I grenaded my planetaries
  3. I'd like to have an open discussion about When to go from LSD's to lockers as one climbs the trail class ladder. I, for one have heard "rumors" that there is a way to adjust LSD's to work almost as well as lockers. I mean, some of us is po'.
  4. I'm about to embark on a transmission rebuild. And I'm wondering, has anyone of us attempted to install/adapt a more current 5 or 6 speed automatic trans to these R50's?
  5. First, should I? Pros and cons, please. Second, has anyone else?
  6. Crap. I had my wallet in my hand, too. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  7. Now that would have been the @!*%, back in 98-99. Lol But this '22. I think I'm gonna need something just a little more rugged. Idk. Maybe wielding it my self ain't such a bad idea. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  8. I've checked out theirs. Not bad. Kinda close. Maybe not quite so hi of clearance. Keep the washer rez and breather box safe. Plus I dont like the round blinkers. Lol And most of all... Maaannnn!! I dont want to build my own. This ain't tinker toys. If I'm paying that type of money, I would think it should come ready to bolt up. Am I wrong? Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  9. Ok, fine sir. Seeing the quality of the rack, and it is pretty. How about a bumper system, or a front bumper. Winch capable, bull bar, 6" LED blinkers, and I'd gladly pay $1500 for that. R50s need those, really, rilly, bad. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  10. Anybody have a good line on front winch bumpers that will fit our rigs? Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  11. You're not wrong, it is a lot of money, but this isn't an amazon Curt rack. OP spent a lot of time for R&D. It's a nice rack for a market that doesn't exist for the R50. I know you were not trying to be a jerk but consider the work that goes into something like this before commenting... or at least ask why the cost. R50jR, it's cool, man. I'm not the target market.

  12. Is that from roof rack to tent, with a russian wife who cooks? Lol I hope that's not just the rack system... That's a whole lotta money. Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  13. I know I've seen it before. But having a hard time finding the cost. Little help? Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
  14. Well this entire post has scared the crap out of me doing My damn knock sensor. Lol A broken lower intake manifold bolt wasn't even a thought. Now I'm questioning whether to just let that hiccup ride...
  15. Heck yeah. That's what I was looking for. Great detail. Thanks, bud.
  16. I'm having a significant wobble, at high way speeds, when the throttle fluctuates. Off/left, on/right. In cruise, when topping a Hill, it will be bad enough that I have to come out of cruise. Has anyone dealt with this and determined which part of the five link is responsible for this?
  17. Having just purchased this truck, I've founde the #6 boot isn't snapped on to the plug and my big pawed butt, can't get my hand back there to do it either. So my thought is the fuel in the dead cylinder is leaking past the rings. My plan, because I've liked to take things apart since I was 4, is to take the upper intake off and make sure it's all put together, proper like. My concern is the EGR nut and those vacuum lines.
  18. Is there a way to tell which one is leaking, or at least a way to keep from buying a whole set new?
  19. Hell, I'd just like to know how to get that damn factory silver tint Off of the back windows. Lol
  20. I got a oil leak that is most likely the rear main seal. The concern is, aside from the leak, is that the sniff test smells a bit like gasoline. Any thoughts?
  21. Holy smokes! Where did you get that fantastic carbon fiber trim piece, and did it come with the door trim as well? And your info and updates are great. Thanks a ton. Next issue for me is a slight hummm under acceleration at about 3k rpm in 2nd gear...
  22. I'm on the exhaust now. Having finally got the 3.3 purring. You said, you went with an exhaust more aggressive than stock... can I ask for more detail on this? Brands, process and all please.
  23. Those Pro Comp Crawlers, are those the stock size? Or has anyone seen/heard of any 17" wheels being used?
  24. Sorry. Very new. My 1st question is what exactly are you all calling power valves and swirl valves? And can you provide pictures of each?
