  1. I'm replacing them sooner or later and there's a lot to do overall anyways. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  2. New windshield! 244,700 miles Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  3. I finally ordered a new windshield to be installed tomorrow. $182 from Gerber Collision & Glass in Scottsdale. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  4. Finally washed/cleaned her this weekend after being gross for about a month. A typical windy and dusty spring hasnt helped, nor the construction site next door at work. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  5. Nothing wrong in my eyes, just the engine letting me know that she has better tastes. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  6. I added about 5 gallons of 87 a few days ago when she was near empty and today was the first cold start after, the result was the worst knock in years! Coincidentally it has been years since I used 87, it's always 91, or 89 when it's not at Costco. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  7. Simple but gold. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  8. How does the air from the top and center of the engine bay affect the intake on the front right corner? Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  9. How easy is it to replace the outside door handles? I think i will be replacing the driver's side since it's really loose, I cant stand it. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  10. I'm in Scottsdale but I ended up going with A' s Tech service in Phoenix, they had competitive pricing (even after including the tow truck to the shop) and had done the transmission back in 2011. They even remembered my truck 6 years and about 35k miles later! They're good people and I would definitely recommend them. And after today's wash I found a nail in the right rear so I took her to Costco to get fixed this afternoon, luckily it hadn't actually punctured the tire, the nail was just stuck in the tread. 20 minutes later I was on my way!

  11. Average differential rebuild was $1,300 after calling many shops around the Phoenix area. And that's what I paid back in the spring or 2016 for my open 3.73. And today I washed her during my lunch hour, she was relatively clean but it rained a lot lately so it was still needed. And she rolled into 244,000 miles today! Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  12. How was the shifter installation? Instal time? My boot is also torn and the shifter has seen better days. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  13. Is that on your black 2002? And is that a normal differential or the g80? And the tires look like continentals? Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  14. I took advantage of being at my parents house today and washed out the remaining mud and crap from the fenders and undercarriage. Maybe sometime this year I'll add the rear frame caps and fender liners. http://ruggedliner.com/wheel-well-liners/ Or http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/ce/full.aspx?Page=22 Sent from Mt Everest using Tapatalk
  15. What's the point in troubleshooting a brand new truck? Take it to the dealership and be done with it, and don't lose any sleep over it. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  16. Thank you! She could always be cleaner, but I can't complain. And yes, the smell of the desert is very unique and I have come to really appreciate it. The creosote bushes have a very particular odor when it rains, and we have had a lot of rain this winter. This part of the desert is currently super green and "lush".

  17. All clean! I even burnt the hell out of my forearm when I was wiping down the exhaust as far as I could reach behind the tire. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  18. Flagstaff uses cinders instead of salt. http://www.flagstaffbusinessnews.com/city-considers-salt-or-cinders/ Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  19. I was going through Sunday's pics and I noticed that my trucks doppelganger is in the background! More than likely a rusted out 4x4 version. Although I did notice that they spread some sort of black material on the roads, which I hope is a better alternative to salt. Btw, Matador coffee is a must in Flagstaff Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  20. For a second I thought that the stabilizer said "rouch country". lol Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  21. Day trip up to Flagstaff with the family. Pics below are from a quick drive up to Snowbowl. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  22. Why? Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  23. Topped off the cooling system with distilled water, only took a few cups. I believe the last time I filled up was possibly last summer in July? The minor leak at the water pump persists and it's still not worth the effort to replace. I also added half a quart of oil a few nights ago. Oil is only at the halfway point at 2,500 miles.

  24. Miles: 243,408 Belt and fuel filter Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
  25. I've been driving her to work more often and during today's lunch I drove through some desert trails around work. It's a lot of fun and kind of gives me the itch for a truck that can properly handle light trails/desert running. Sent from my SM-G550T using Tapatalk
