Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Installed minus the lower ball joint bolts . This way I can move it to put in the axle . On to the drivers side in the mean time I’m going to install the differential since the pan doesn’t leak .

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Day 2 of scrubbing up the 5th wheel camper. I put 4 new tires on it back in 2020 and we haven't taken it out since. The wife says she will quit working next month so then she'll have no excuses. Sitting out doors the tree pollen and crap has really gotten a hold on it. So I bought a nice pressure washer thinking that might be a better option than hand scrubbing it all over. Well it helped. I still ended up running a brush over it and hand scrubbing some too. It's bright white again but my arse is dragging big time. We're either going to use it or sell it.
Whoever coined the phrase "don't let the old man in" I believe was talking about staying fit and active as long as you can. Believe him.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Yeah. Well they're clean!
I remember when I put them on, I was getting it ready to use when I noticed the tread on the previous tires was splitting and wires were showing through. It wouldn't have made it around the block. ![]()

They do not call them "China Bombs" for no reason. About 10 years ago we took a trip as far east as the Dakotas as neither of us had been to Mt Rushmore. We put brand new tires on at the start of the trip, and on the way home just as we crossed back into Kalifornia we blew a tire and took out the side of our 5th wheel. You never know about trailer tires. |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
They are expensive but they are made in America . Goodyear Endurance tires have them on my flat car trailer
Trailer tires fail from under inflation overload or road hazard. Pick up a nail and you really don’t feel anything till the tire fails . Even the best tires will fail in that scenario.
