Happened to me, keep your 15/16ths deep socket handy.

And replace pan with one that has a drain plug.

Anyone here tried the R1 offroad/towing pads? my rear pads are nearly toast and I'm looking at replacements. I have R1 OE spec I believe and they lasted a while but I think the added towing did a number on them.

Oil change, spark plugs, coolant flush. 100k service done.

Had it happen to me last year, very glad I had someone else do it.

Why ARENT you ALWAYS looking jet skis?!

That was a good time. I'll be up in Nashville next weekend, but I'll be flying in so no chance for a redux.

Like I said the everything in the axle minus the shafts was replaced under warranty. It would have cost me like 5800 otherwise. Original work was like 2200 which seemed fair, and for them to bite the bullet and say "yeah we should have done this to begin with and we'll make it right". If the...

Everything in the rear end was replaced. Carrier, Ring, Pinion, all bearings, etc.... Original batch of bearings were Yukon I believe as they were immediately available. Replacement was Dana/Motorcraft and Timken.

I had mine done twice in about a 2 month span. The first shop did warranty on it after a noise arose less than 2k miles of completion, and its been good for about 10k. There are plenty of bearings available, its just dependent on what brand you want. Sourcing certain brands can be problematic.

A detroit locker isn't an upgrade. Its a change to make a change. It has a time and a place. A Raptor is probably neither.

Passed 100k this evening in Miami.

I was thinking maybe it was small enough for leather filler DIY, but its also on the outer edge of the drivers seat so super visible.

I have this small crack in my leather forming. It's not bad, and not a tear... I use leather conditioner to keep the seats moisturized or whatever but this one has sprung regardless. Any of yall have used a kit or is this just a "pay a professional to do it" things?

RCI; looks like they still make the transmission skid plate but only sell it as part of a package. I'm sure you could just ask for that part alone.
