Croft trailer has the least expensive shock.
Its an OEM one from Hydro-Act.

Agree on what others are saying.
Your shock has failed.
You can insert a 3/8”x4” grade 8 bolt in the brake lockout hole so you can still use the...
There is a cargo cover kit.
It’s collapsible when needed.
You would need The radios to really complete it.
Not sure what was in the cab as all the radio base units were in the rack.
All the racks and mounts were already removed when I picked up mine at Ft. Hood.
Not my truck...
Perform the above mentioned recommendations as needed.
But also make sure your heater blend door is closing all the way.
It’s behind the glovebox.
If it’s not closing properly, it’s also letting cold air in and that’s why it’s not as hot as it could be.
I had the same issue after getting...
Wouldn’t it be so much easier to just put it back like it left the factory?

Bought the VDO model and it reads the signal from GEN1 and...

Don't skimp on gauges. The VMs aren’t that expensive anyway.
They are the eyes on the health of the truck.
After that info I bet Ignition switch.
I just replaced one on Tuesday and it was getting rough turning the key.
Didn’t realize it until new one installed. Butter smooth now.
If you have 15 minutes and a Phillips screwdriver, your set.
Extremely easy.
Don’t forget to put electric grease on the connectors and lube your buckets.
This sounds like an issue that’s been building for a while.
Like CUCVRUS said, it’s a very easy and inexpensive fix.
You can do it in the parking lot. Borrow a steering wheel puller.
That’s a whole lot easier than hacking into wiring.
Used both in the building of a new well house this past weekend.
Did the tailgate modification on the tan trailer so it sits level and stronger.
Worked great.
Front gate modification has been done to both trailers and really comes in handy.
These really handle weight nicely.
Two tons of...
