    I'm in the same boat w/Advance. If they had it, RMN15AAP is the current 15% off coupon for Advance. Bummer it's not there anymore.

    Nice! thanx bud I have not seen it. Will check it out for sure
    beautiful song. Unfortunately for me, I think I've heard it at more funerals than weddings. On second thought, those are (arguably) bout the same thing, so it's hard to tell
    Uppers was lookin good. How many other cameras out shootin that break? bet you saw a few. Looks like you guys took 2 boards with ya, were you considering paddling out til you saw the crowd, I know you can surf. Your boy was gettin it, whippin cutbacks like a pro
    okay, so if i had a choice, 4.30's are without a doubt what I'd go with, but where o where do you find them??
    pretty sure our trucks are 8.4" rear, and same as 95'ish to 2000'ish taco's @empty_lord back me up on this?

    Nitro gears sells the 4.30 I believe.

    I’ve got spare front diffs and spare rear diffs for rebuilds. My plans building 2 good ones and use a true trac for the rear. Then put them under and retire the stock tundra ones to my storage mess and keep them for spares

    4.30 was not available when I bought. Might be now.

    ironically I’m glad I did 4.56. Thought it was too much at the time. But I think I may have to go to 33’s or 34’s now that I have a real lift. So I may be closer to stock ratio after all.

    I believe with 4:30 and 33s I’ll be happiest. I mean honestly with the 3.91/3.93s I have (w/e the hell it is) I’m not hurting while towing. But I know it can do better

    Speedo is off the ABS on the 05-06 trucks. Gears won’t change anything

    Literally no idea how. The speed is based off the wheel speed at the abs sensors. Gears don’t change that. The a750 doesn’t have an speed sensor for vehicle speed.

    Yea, but final drive gears won’t change the speed the ABS sensor sees. Tire diameter does.

    Again with your vvti superiority. Crushing my dream truck purchase from my youth. I should have waited. But the opportunity was there. By 2005 the fleet manager had retired. Strike while the iron is hot.

    what he's sayin is changing tire size will throw off your speedo, but if you change gears yet keep stock tire size, your speedo will remain correct. The reason yours is off, isn't because of your 4.56's. It's because of your 'whatever the hell size your tires are'. 34's?
    Here a spare, there a spare, everywhere a spare spare. I'm sorry, did you say you had a set of 4.30 rears for me or......?

    Recheck using cruise control so you can be sure it's accurate, then remove your locker with the 4.56's (ship to my address) then I pretty much don't care what you do after that.:thumbsup:

    If i got another vehicle for a daily, I'd have to spend a bunch of money and time making it mine, detrimental to building the Tundera. (and that's the name we were looking for!)

    They are multiplying!! Still funny how much random crap they have on their roof. It reminds me of the yards full of junk you see out in the country around here. Looks like someone plucked all that crap from their yard and decided to road trip.

    Remember that creepy tunnel that I've posted pictures and video of? They closed the tunnels because some idiot broke down by the tracks and got hit. All he had to do was put it in neutral and let it roll back a few feet. I swear humans find a way to ruin everything.

    Crash happens around the 5 minute mark.

    I've always had a sweet spot in my heart for the late 60s GM pickups. Super sad to see that happen. Hope the owner had Haggerty's or similar really good insurance.

    Actually, I went to go post this on another old forum I was on bitd. I realized some of the other guys had already posted it.

    https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/showthread.php?t=834294

    There's a lot of interesting chatter about it. Claims this was intentional insurance case. Dunno.

    I hate when they call an access cab a 4 door. I guess technically... but no, just no.

    They could call it Super crew but I feel like that term has been used before. ;)

    The AC is a 4-door with 2 suicide doors.​

    Been on hold with ADP for about an hour now at work. Trying to roll over from old company to new company. Frustrating... New company help line was responsive, informative, and helpful.

    Geezus. And a stepside to boot. Well….. if someone feels it necessary to put that kind of a costume on a first gen, at least it was a stepside that was sacrificed.
