Inspected rear wheel bearings, decided just to replace them. Only one was somewhay "iffy". But, after 165K...it will get a kit on each side.





Have a new pinion seal coming also.

Brian.

Yeah, just do yourself a favor and loosen axle hub bolts before you jack it up...unless you're using an impact.

Added some sound deadening/insulation and rubber floor mat to the old girl. I'll start on the cabinets and sleeping platform soon.

Dumped the mudder tires. But, went larger with this brrand. 285/75 Aurro A/T Trail Blade tires, load range E...so, she'll handle camping gear with ease. Mounted the tires at work, but had them balanced at a tire store. Tire guy said they used very little weight and one tire needed none.

Anyhow, pictures or it didn't happen.

Glad to hear the balanced so well.

Deployed...(forgot to mention...picked up a RTT Monday).



Just have to tweak the mounting brackets and drill some holes. Deploys pretty easily, although, the side bars may get cut off on rack...they're in the way while zipping it up.
