So is it wise to replace the whole axel and go with the 8.6" with G80 (if they are a time bomb) or go with one thats non-locking then. Seems to be plenty available from the yards for the LWB that do not have the G80. Everything hooks right in place whether you go with the same 8" SWB or the 8.6...

I should be good with a 2002-2005 replacement correct? Thought I read the ones after 2005 have something additional on them. Thanks again

Daughter had the truck yesterday and called that the back end was making clunking noises when turning. Went to drive it and loud clunk and back end was binding up. Pulled the diff cover and found a piece of the spider gear in the bottom. Looks as if the top smaller pinion spider gear is broken...

Did mine last winter and yes had to take off the bumper cover and such. Its not a difficult job just lots of clips and parts to remove to get to it. Believe I got the replacement part in 2 days from rock auto and had everything off waiting on the part.

Once again Thanks Fellas!!!!! Had a bad coil pack in #6 Changed coil pack and replaced all the spark plugs. Running Sweet again (With 229,300 miles I will add) and best yet, NO CODES !!

TB just started misfiring. Pulled code p0300 - multiple misfires. Not a specific cylinder. Where should I start?

THAT would be it !!! Just found a previous users how to as well !! As always, Thanks again fellas. Time to order the part and get busy !

Thanks Roadie, Let me clarify my original post, the leak is coming from the fins in a cooler thats in front of the transmission cooler. Its directly above the bottom of the fan shroud. Its maybe 3" Tall by about 24" long. appears to be mounted to a bracket with two lines comin off it on the...

I have just Developed a leak which I have identified as coming from the bottom of the transmission cooler directly in the center. Leaks down onto the airdam and causes a long leak on the driveway. I cannot locate a step by step procedure on the details of removing the trans oil cooler (removal...

Heres mine with 265/70/17 Terra Grapplers with Marks 1.5" Wheel Spacers. There is plenty of clearance from the ball joints. Actually wish I would have gone a bit bigger with the tires but played it safe.

Prior to the Lift, Wheel Spacers and Bigger tires I used to get around 300 miles on a tank (4.10 rear). Now I'm lucky to get 250. Been averaging 14.0 - 14.2. Next addition i'm going to do the PCM4less tune so hoping that may help....... :redface:

Just replaced my upper ball joints and flipped/reversed new upper control arms. Amazing how different the front end feels already. Now time for an alignment. Control arms were making horrible noise when rotating up and down. New ones, quiet as can be. Used a 21MM wrench and one wack with a BFH...

Just received a 10+ inch snowfall. Took the TB out for some fun. Turned the 4WD Switch and nothing. Noticed no lights, no noise activating. Checked the #8 fuse which appeared good and reinserted. Worried it may be the TCCM. Did a quick "Search" found an update to pull the #8 fuse and wait 30 sec...

I am the second owner 224,700 plus and still running great. Still original motor and transmission. Need to replace upper Ball Joints and may flip UCA at same time. Also looking at the PCM4less. Getting harder to drive with Gas Prices and loss of MPG after the lift, new tires, spacers and such !

Anyone got the Part # for the BDS Shocks ?? Thanks
