    Yes, more details on this please.

    How far does this thing protrude up into the pan? It looks like it may leave a quart? in the bottom of the pan. Not that it matters a huge deal, just curious.

    Just finished draining the front and rear diffs and transfer case and filled them all with Amsoil. I'm only at 36,000 miles but wanted to go ahead and get the good stuff in there. I'll do it again at 72,000.

    Yep, and it's the same for millions of idiots who seem to have money but no sense. Three weeks I stay off the water - Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day. Be careful out there and watch the idiots! The ramp makes for an entertaining day - all you need is a lawn chair.

    Yep, wheelhouse liners, bolts, wires, shocks... Have fun when you have to work on something. You WILL have that black junk EVERYWHERE!

    Agreed! As I said, I think it's sweet!

    Completely remove it from the steering shaft. Then, push the upper section in toward the firewall and the joint will come apart. After that, you can slide the boot completely off. Easy as ?.

    Don't overthink this. Remove the boot with a 10mm wrench and fully remove it from the steering shaft. Clean all the old crap grease out (if there even is any) and LIBERALLY apply synthetic grease of your choice inside the plastic bushing in the end of the boot between the retention rings. Reinstall and wipe off excess that pushes out on steering shaft. Noise-free guaranteed. I also put some grease on the boot-to-firewall mating surface to make sure it sealed well there too.

    Nice truck! Lowered on all-terrains....sweet! Only in Canada! ?

    Yep. The whole plastic trim piece around the window comes off.

    I gave up on my idiotic dealer trying to solve this issue and just fixed it myself. Take the rubber boots off the firewall with three 10mm nuts. Disconnect the steering shaft under the brake master cylinder and separate so you can slide boot off. Apply rubber-safe synthetic grease (I used Sil-Glyde) liberally between the plastic rings inside the boot (you'll see them in the narrow end, distal to the firewall). Reinstall boot and wipe off any excess that pushes out onto the steering shaft. Enjoy your now flutter-free truck!

    Just got my cluster back from Chris after having his patch done to correct the back-up sensor graphic "disappearance" issue. It works great now! Thanks Chris and thanks @Jchoi for being the guinea pig.

    Got my vacuum pump replaced under warranty. Normal brake pedal feel now and all that ticking and chattering noise from the engine compartment is gone!
  16. lapoolboy
    Yep. That's exactly why I jumped on this now. I can just envision a national backorder on the new pump in the near future.

    Michelin makes more models besides Latitudes.

    Good luck. Pirelli's are not the tire people expect them to be for the money. Get her a set of Michelins and call it a day.

    Pretty sure he made some modifications.
  21. lapoolboy
    LOL....that's why our engines didn't come with them. ?
  22. lapoolboy
    What are the other five?
  23. lapoolboy
    Phil tried to have his dealer do this.....no dice.
  24. lapoolboy
    @GTPprix E-mail sent. Anxious to finally get this working! Thanks to you and @Jchoi for your efforts on this! Weird that the vehicle icon is an SUV though? ?
  25. lapoolboy
    Please, oh please, let this be the fix for everyone! ?
