Need input for sliders, 2x2, 2x3, or 2x4 rectangular. Don't think I need a tube style slider.

2x4 and then cut out your rockers and tuck up the box tubing to bottom of the door.

My driverside rocker/ cab corner has rust cancer so I would just like to cut that out and then put said slider up as close to body as possible.

Yeah, I can still here it when that rock destroyed it.


Anyway, I can't use my bald TSL as a spare. The date code is 1996 and no one would mount it for liability reasons, so I tried myself on an old manual tire machine. Got it on but I destroyed the bead and will not hold air. I know I can get an inner tube but I think I will just breakdown and buy another km2 and use my discount.

You should find out what a set of 33s km2 will cost me with your discount.

Ok. What the heck is going on with the truck? Been getting bad gas mileage, from 17mpg to 10 at the last fill up. And so far this tank I've gone 88 miles and already at 3/8 tank. Now if I calculate that right, it will be less than 9mpg.

I do know the IAC valve is stuck open again but would that make the mpg take a dump?

The motor has 195k miles and as far as I know the injectors have never been changed, the PO never said anything about it although he took it to the dealer every 2000 miles for oil changes and scheduled maintenance. So could it be injectors? Cats? ???
