    Budget minded Tradesman upgrades

    Oh, it's a PITA to get that plastic lower grill off... I ordered a new one off eBay for $40 as I had to get physical over finesse ... Someone with more patience would likely get that grill off much easier

    I found the hooks on Amazon for $150... Keep in mind they're aluminum... Still very strong but not steel strong...

    Budget minded Tradesman upgrades

    Here are the flushed reverse and rear very bright lights I watched several YouTube videos and with some trepidation I pulled the trigger on the order....like the YouTubers state it takes a while to arrive... Some peeps received their canopies in three months and mine took a bit longer... For...

    Budget minded Tradesman upgrades

    I ordered the 8 gang Aux beam and installed fog lights (the bulbs are white light and with a quick flick off and back on they're amber, rear reverse lights, and made my own cluster of lights recessed behind the lower bumper and added the polished tow rings (Amazon).... I ordered a canopy from...

    Thuren front sway bar, Carli adj front track bar, Thuren rear track bar= phase I for my suspension solution...

    There are peeps who have issues with axle geometry with the simple leveling kit up front... Carli recommends the radius arm drops to help geometry and to prevent the spring from "clocking" I think this is the appearance the springs are not linear and look like they're bending... Price keeps climbing

    I have been pricing the Thuren front springs and fix shocks... I realize Carli shocks are tuned as are synergy... Weighing my options and my wallet

    Thuren front sway bar, Carli adj front track bar, Thuren rear track bar= phase I for my suspension solution...

    All has improved.... Researching if I need new springs for a better spring rate....but over all there is improvement.... 45/40 PSI in the tires when empty... No more rear wagging or lurching over bumps... The Carli suspension website has a nice write up about tires and wheels and psi...it is...

    I gave away the '96 Chevy Silverado 2500 with the 7.2L engine this summer to my nephew.... All the plugs are right there and the engine bay looks empty in comparison to these new rigs.... Good luck sir....on my Xterra I removed the intake plenum for the hard to reach coil packs... Have not...

    Windshield washer sprayer hose disconnected

    Regarding the auto disconnect feature of the spray hose for the windshield (not to be confused with the sway bar disconnect)....I have searched and found peeps on YT doing some simple fixes with zip ties to increase the tension around the connections.... I suppose I can go along and put one on...

    Just want a better ride

    I agree with this post... Start with knowing your unloaded weight per axle and adjust tire pressures based on load... I did the rear track bar and that helped to stop the lateral lurching you get going over rough terrain... After that it has to do with your willingness to change the spring rate...
