Wow, total opposite of here today. You guys really needed the rain though!

 

Love the palm trees. Just says, "WARM CLIMATE" to me. Miss living out there ... for that, at least.

 

 

 

Shopping for summer tires for my 20's. I keep flip-flopping between a A/T tire (which I don't really need, but they look much better, IMO) & a full blown summer-only sport tire. What's keeping me from grabbing that is the occasional off roading I need to do. With those tires I'd need to use 4 wheel drive on wet grass, lol. I'm on the highway a lot, and the roads SUCK out here, so a good riding tire is a must. Handling also a must. Decisions decisions ....

How is the road and tire noise? I can get a set for $900 installed with a current sale. Or I can get the coopers for $550.

.probably go with coppers with I don't venture off road much.

Don't notice it at all. No difference over the regular ATs

I had a used Goodyear LS2 put on my front left so it will wear with the other 3 tires before i replace with a different size

But don't you have a level and slightly larger tires?

And a new rear block

The k2 trucks look good IMO but there's too many issues with them. I have the dreaded shake and vibration issue [emoji17]

Got the front end jacked up & torn apart. Brakes looked fine so won't be replacing them yet, but...

Driver side hub bearing was toast, have it yanked off. I picked up a new Moog one but ran out of day light to work so tomorrow looks like an early morning of putting her all back together. Then I'll move to the rears....

    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
