    What Gl5 do you use?

    I was JUST thinking today, wondering if there was a brake upgrade available (after stumbling onto a first gen post online, where bigger Tundra parts were transplanted...). Interesting!

    Recommended Grease?

    I hear that! I honestly used to be that way, but just didn't make proper use of limited time and blew it off (I promise I'll make it up to you, old girl! * as I pat her dashboard*)

    What Gl5 do you use?

    Thanks! I've been really spoiled with mine (Read: haven't had to touch it and therefore am ignorant), and am trying to get the lingo down!

    Recommended Grease?

    Thanks for sharing the makeup (lithium). I wasn't sure if I should go with lithium or molybdenum (is that even a thing anymore), etc. I haven't kept up with maintenance as I should have over the last 13 years, with my last real "in the weeds" maintenance period being with my old Volkswagen LOL...

    High mileage oil?

    I started using Royal Purple when she was new in '05, then moved to Mobil 1 High Mileage Full Synthetic a while ago. I haven't had to tear her apart yet, so I can't really say much about it's effectiveness (then again, maybe not having to tear her apart is testament enough!).

    What Gl5 do you use?

    I thought I saw a reference to this somewhere, but cannot find it (on mobile)... I'm trying to figure out what to use in my diff (Prerunner with electric locking diff). What exactly is an "imposter"?

    Recommended Grease?

    Good evening gents! Just a quick question here... With no deployments on tap, and a semester off from school, I'm looking to catch up on some LOOONG overdue periodic maintenance on my 05 (and will likely flood the forum with questions as my baby has spoiled me over the years). I'm wondering if...

    Recovery Fail - 3rd Gen Edition

    My god... What a ****ty way to learn that lesson. Note to self: If I ever hit the trails, do some research about proper recovery equipment!

    Shock replacement interval or failure?

    "Ho on coke"... I really need to work that into my conversation today.

    Recovery Fail - 3rd Gen Edition

    Daaaang! That sounded NASTY! So, not ever having to deal with this, how much would something like this nonsense cost to fix??

    Welcome to the forum! I'm sure your Taco will quickly melt the hellish memories of the Dodge [emoji53]

    Driveline work

    That makes sense... My baby certainly shouldn't have that issue! Well... I WAS deployed for over a year, so maybe I should ask my son LOLOLOL.

    Will make a note of that, thanks!

    Driveline work

    Thanks for the info. I thought it was odd, as anytime I've done classic cars, I've never had to rebalance. Since this is my first truck (that I've had zero issues with in 13 years), I thought maybe it was different (especially considering my old Firebirds/GTOs don't have carrier bearings LOL).
