  1. Well I was getting my muzzleloader ready so I can go hunt with it tomorrow, and I put in a 209 primer to make sure it works (wasn't loaded). It decided to go off as I slammed to gun closed, like I always do. No I'm kinda scared it might go off with it loaded and me not ready. That would suck
  2. +1. Not too hot, not too cold Plus its hunting season, so that's exciting enough right there haha
  3. Think I could clear 37X13.5's? These are 35X12.5's...
  4. Mine ain't low profile but rather short. Still holds more than I need it to. I can still fit my 4wheeler back there, with the tailgate down of course
  5. +1 You'll have a place to throw your crap now. I got my hitch and straps and tailgate chair back there. I'm sure some other stuff too
  6. Any LQ9 6L's? Or LQ4's? Not sure if I would want to do a N/A build or a forced induction
  7. I forgot to mention that my dad use to have an 86 Toyota pickup with somewhere around 360k miles and then sold it for like 2500 haha Would have been an awesome hunting truck, except for all the rust
  8. I know I wouldnt wanna be the guy driving behind you thats for sure
  9. I think that's the pic on your build thread that made me go "what da hell!?" Haha
  10. Seems like you got your hands full. I'll take that blower off your hands to lessen the load haha
  11. I bet I'll hit half a million on this truck, but I'm pretty sure I'll have swapped the motor at least once more before that, just cause I want a 6.0L. Nice garage by the way, wish I had a garage and lift I'm stuck out on the driveway haha
  12. Dads truck (09 Silverado) bought 12/2009 has like 135k miles now. That's about 33k a year. It does get used as a company vehicle though
  13. Towed the boat to fill up so we could winterize it. Only towed a couple of miles, but was first tow with any real weight on the new gears. Felt like nothing was back there. It was amazing. Let alone with the trailer its only around 3000 lbs. but it use to struggle getting it going with the 3.73's and 35's Oh yeah, rolled over 346k on Thursday. I have put 350 on it since then. This thing does not get a break
  14. Damn that sucks. You just got those too. Was it a defective tire or did something gouge it?
  15. I actually came across a forum on Google where people did the double din conversion in the 99-02's so I'm thinking I wanna make that my next project. It would be nice to have a big ol' screen and see my playlists instead of scrolling through them and then finding songs. Maybe even built in navi would be a nice touch ;)
  16. I'm trying to get this issue fixed with my front diff. and then I'm gonna clean it up and take pics. Hopefully that's soon haha
  17. Bout to trip over 346k here. Replacement motor at 308k (used motor had 100k), 3 trannies, and now on my 4th rear. I am not easy on my truck. Only reason for new rear is new gears. 3rd rear is still in good shape
  18. Matt, what size tires you got? I believe you told me 37's before, on what size wheel, a 20"? Truck looks good!
  19. I feel like rhino lining might be a bit cheaper than line x just because they are not as big as line x but are still a competitor. Or for around $100-125 you can do it yourself with herculiner. Plus if it starts to wear you can just touch it back up. And you can do as many layers as you want until you run out. Spray on is the best way but what would justify spending 5-6 times the cost? If it was for the actual bed liner I would get them to do it but for rockers and rails they don't get half the abuse my truck bed does
  20. Follow the instructions on the can of bed liner. It will most likely be a green scuff pad. I'm pretty sure the herculiner came with one
  21. Have to when applying to a glossy surface. Take a scuff pad to rough it up. If not it won't stick. My prep work is getting out surface rust spots
  22. I would say so. But around here herculiner is $30 less than the bed armour. Both seem to be great products. Just depends on what your preference is. I think bed armour also has kevlar fibers or something like that in it which makes it stronger
  23. From what I've seen herculiner has the grit factor to it for anti slip and the bed armour looks like its more impact resistant but no grip to it
  24. $600 is steep for just those. And herculiner will work good as long as your prep work is good, just like any paint job. I'm going to redo my rocker panels one weekend before it starts snowing. Didn't prep it well the first time
