I've got the rear done. I'm not going with BK but a different LT kit.

Ordered a rack kit from HMF https://hotmetalfab.com/products/mid-length-diy-universal-over-the-bed-rack I went with med length 15" height. It should put the RTT over the two spares just right. Also went with the molly panel option.

I'd get that tire off the ground, take your hands rotate, push, pull, and yank on the tire. It could be a lot of things. look to see if the spring ends are properly seated too. If you are not going to do long travel ever.. I'd put in some uni ball upper arms. Check the lower balls, tie...

For cleanout I sealed off two shop vacs to suck out the intake under the cowl and let them run for hours, open windows a lot and close block all vents with one open at a time then To prevent it... Get a roll of this and a roll of gorrilla tape and make a filter for under $50. You can even...

I hit 206,000 miles and did a tire rotation, oil change and because it was flaring shifts when cold I drained and added 2 bottles of lucas trans stop slip. It wasn't slipping just seemed like solenoids were lagging. The stuff worked great.

Not a gen 3 but my Gen 1 was flaring shifts with 205,000 miles on it. The lead frame and reprogramming were not issues and its had filter and fluid exchanges. I just drained enough to put in two bottles of lucas trans stip slip. It wasn't slipping just flaring as in the solenoids were a bit...

I had a freak failure of a lee pump. They sure got me a replacement quick and was really easy to deal with.

They were running front bypasses and bypass racks before they came out with mid travel. So it can be done and there are a few shops that can do it well. A new development is the 2nd gen conversion shock bucket which will add a bit more travel. I think the main reason why trucks go to your...

My 2010 has the ability to keep spinning the odometer up beyond 190,000 miles and even still putting down 11's on the road with just fluid, belt and filter changes. It's been almost as reliable as the 80 series Landcruiser I had.

I've seen a lot more than just Aluminum or steel machined 9 ways to Sunday and worked on a lot faster machines with brakes consisting of rotors and stators that look like a stack of pancakes. Basically. a small piece of steel just right to mount mass-produced rebuilt 6-pot front and rear...

The idea is affordable brakets to adapt affordable production brembo front 6p and rear 4p. Since it isn't a large part the weight savings of aluminum isn't that great of a difference, steel is going to be easier to produce and end up with a strong small part. Stock-thickness rotors will...

The alcon kit I have seen is radial mounted calipers. With Axial mounted calipers and a steel bracket it can be done flat with a counterbore

ABS just notices locked up brakes. It does not limit braking power at any other point. Lockup is caused by a traction condition and traction varies by terrain and road condition.

You can you tube too There is a back to back before and after test of a kit

It's probably best to just send out a blueprint to a waterjet house. Just like any good BBK, I have seen it will need shim washers to adjust or more specifically center the caliper on the rotor. Production tolerances on the spindles weren't loose but they weren't exactly tight for the...
