    Do the front seats have arm rests? Still interested in the bed setup if you still have it. I'm in Portland right now. I'll be in your area next week.

    New Falken All Terrain coming

    They have very thick sidewalls and soft rubber - great in the rocks and places like Moab, not good for tire wear. Lack of full depth tread blocks doesn't help.

    Just bought a 2005 GMC Savana AWD - Need some help

    Not sure how a converter slipping translates into needing a trans rebuild. I have heard of vacuum issues effecting trans shifts. I'd get a second opinion.

    The Dana 50 TTB and getting it under my E350 van.

    A few clues and pointers are better than nothing. I'd say the old saying "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free" applies. He did the hard work of figuring it out, he's under no requirement to give it out. If you want to Cut & Turn a set of Dana 44 beams for a Bronco, nobody that...

    Moog CC880S coils

    I really want to pick some up but with small tires and a smaller budget, I don't want mine to sit any higher. Any idea what a 5.4 weighs?

    Soften up my ride

    I'm currently trying to decide what to do with my rear leaf pack. I've seen the cost of a new set. Mind if I ask what the re-arch cost you?
