    Difference between cargo covers?

    This cover kit came brand new with my truck, I made custom brackets and cut about 3" off the bottom of the supports, I really like it. The color was not my favorite, but it has grown on me quite well.:-D What kind of cover kit is this? LMTV?

    M35A3 Front Boot Replacement

    After cleaning the spindle, I did a visual inspection of the bushing and it seamed to have little to no significant wear at all. I also checked by trying to move the end of the axle that sticks out of the spindle (after install) sideways for any free play and there was none, I can't say that...

    M35A3 Front Boot Replacement

    Both boots are torn on mine, the right side worse than the left. The right side (the one I replaced) was dropping globs of the grease and gear oil sludge onto the inside of my tire and subsequently slinging it all over under the fender on the right side. The gear oil was coming from the bad...

    M35A3 Front Boot Replacement

    I'm planning on replacing both front boots on the A3 this weekend because they are torn. I'm going with the solid silicone boots from Erik's and I also bought new axle seals to replace since I'm going to tear into it anyway. I have all the tools, but are there any other parts I should have on...
