    It could break at the end of the driveway, or not for 100,000 miles. PCMS is your best insurance. Knowing WHAT to do if something breaks is 2nd best. Ya rolls the cubes, ya takes yer chances.

    Definitely winner for least expensive ride improver. I don't ever plan to sell mine. They'll find it, and me in it during some archeological dig Eons from now. It'll change their history. Who knew Jackazzes drove trucks in the 21st Century ?

    Hahahaha, true, but I will be an old retiree. Climbing around my big girl will probably the closest I get to PT. It's good for you, it's good for me. I do' know but I been told, Mexican babes don't mind 'em old. As long as they're fit and have dinero. And fit is optional if there's enuff dinero.

    You no yanky my cranky ? I am seriously considering this. I figure a nice under-over gear case, with the gears in the T-case made to "align" the ratios of the diff. and portal ends of the front with the ratio in the rear pumpkins.

    It's been a few days, so I am back in here with an idea. Replace the ENTIRE front suspension of an M820 with an Oshkosh or Meritor independent front suspension module. The only engineering I haven't nailed down is whether the front prop shaft will line up or if some kind of "transfer case"...

    I prefer it manual. One less thing to go wrong and letcha sittin'. That is also why I wanna go singles though, 4 fewer tires to adjust.
