dayne i found you a spare tire. its a 35x12.5r15 mud rover 75% tread. do you have a rim for it or do you just want it on a stock spare?

tom when i locate an axle ill need your help

 

[ben10]

dude you can snag those things all day long at pick and pull.

anyone know why my truck doesnt wanna start in the morning? only when its super cold out... it will just crank and crank... if i hold my foot on the floor it will sputter to life then an instant later runs fine. im living at 7100 feet elevation now, and the mornings here are in the teens of not lower I doubt it has been below 0 since I got here, but it gets cold for sure. if its warm outside it fires right up so im ruling out elevation issues... Ima post a thread in the engine issues thing.

 

[2004xlmiller]

well the axle search is probably over, and im back to a 28 spline. found my buddy a built 9in for his prerunner, so hes selling me his 8.8 with l/s and 4.56s, ill just throw cobra brakes on that. my 8.8 should be parted out by the weekend, and ill sell off the internals i have collected. anyone have use for brand new richmond 4.56s? keepin my ruffstuff cover, shit is siiiick!
