Welcome to the addiction.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think I am going to try rebuilding them. While flipping my hubs yesterday ,I pulled the boots back on the wheel cylinders and they where dry. The pads looked practically new. While I was in there I repacked the bearings and cleaned everything up. The master...

Now that I have had my truck for almost a year, I have started to do more pm. I want to start accumulating the parts that I will need to overhaul the brakes. Would it be better to replace or rebuild the brake components?

I have been wanting to go to a rally for sometime now. It looks like I will be able to be there Saturday only(day trip). What is the itinerary for Saturday?

I am getting ready to install my new rims and tires this weekend. Every truck tire shop near me cant balance these big wheels. I still have the run flats in them, so beads are out. any suggestions?

After 5 hours , alot of lubricant and a 18 year old helper that doesn't realize that he has a back, I finally got them mounted. A big thanks to everyone for their advice. Now its time for a handful of asprin and a few cold ones to ease the pain. I am not looking forward to doing that again for a...

I am trying to mount my 395s with runflats on mrap wheels. The runflat does not want to go around the rim. Anyone have any ideas?
