Using your driveshaft as a skid plate voids your gear install warranty
Glad you were able to just swap diffs and tighten up preload, question is how many years are you gonna leave it up front now?
Yea I really need to build a traction bar to protect that!Using your driveshaft as a skid plate voids your gear install warranty

I genuinely appreciate it!! I was also getting all kinds of shit from the people I wheel with as well, so I had to get my shit togetherSee...It was for your own good
Lots of carnage for our group actually and most of it getting to the park. We had a 4runner lose a fuel pump on the entrance road, then an XJ blow a rear u joint at the entrance of merlin, then a front ujoint on the exit of merlinSlander sounds like quite the relaxing trip to Hawk Pride!

When I lived on Oahu I had my tool bag attached to one of the front tie downs with a carabiner. The other tie down had multiple big bottles of water in a big tool bag for emergency use.What are y'all doing for tool and spare parts storage? Right now I have a sportsman trunk from academy sports, but it kept flipping in the bed and broke this last trip. I had an action packer that worked ok, and before that an in bed took box. I liked the in bed toolbox the best, but I always seemed to be hitting it off rocks and ended up breaking a wing off of it in SD and it caved in on itself. I use tool bags, anyone just strap them down in the bed and party on?
What about an in-bed tool chest? Would allow lots of secure, closed storage but being in bed, wouldn't get hit with trees/rocks etc. Could also set tool bags etc inside or on top of the tool chest.What are y'all doing for tool and spare parts storage?

I need something kind of modular as I still use this a truck when it's not wheeling.What about an in-bed tool chest? Would allow lots of secure, closed storage but being in bed, wouldn't get hit with trees/rocks etc. Could also set tool bags etc inside or on top of the tool chest.
I need to inventory, the big parts (like the driveshafts and spare knuckle) are in the bed around and under the spare. I have a bunch of hydro hoses and junk like that lining the bottom of the tool box, I could probably coil those up and store on the extra cab floor and forget about them until needed.How big of parts are we talking? I’ve been buying the dewalt t stak cases off Amazon for things in the shop and my new enclosed trailer. Water proof and a top tray for smaller stuff. They clip together too
Understandable there. Bed space is at a premium for sure.I need something kind of modular as I still use this a truck when it's not wheeling.

Aren’t those pretty dang heavy though?A packrat bolted down in the bed would work pretty slick IMO. Can find them used every so often.
We have also built some slide out drawers that were kinda similar.
Nice being able to pile shit on top and still access everything without unloading the truck
