My opinion is throw out bearing from the way you described it. It usually makes the noise with the clutch pedal released. It was usually if the transmission was in neutral and clutch pedal released...

At first my rims rubbed on the metal tabs that slide under the brake pads. The metal kinda curls out past the caliper and would rub. I just trimmed them a bit. Are you sure that's not what is...

I know that if the switch is bad and it doesn't think the clutch is getting pushed down then your truck wouldn't start so I guess it's possible. I don't know how to test it so I would have to say to...

Not sure what you're trying to turn your truck into but you could get a 31 spline 8.8 from an explorer. Then you would have your disc brakes too

Have you checked the fuses?
You could pull off the inside door panel and check the wires
Maybe the switch is bad

I'm pretty sure the scan tool is if you get air in the abs module. I read that somewhere before. As long as no air gets in you should be fine with gravity bleeding

You don't want to put the wrench on the bolt. There should be a square hole out on the arm of the tensioner where you put a ratchet in and then turn from there. This will take the tension off the...

Re: Want to fit 33x12.50 with 17 inch rim

So from the chart for you to fit a 33x12.50 you will need to trim and with a body lift and suspension lift you may need to trim.

Re: Want to fit 33x12.50 with 17 inch rim

What vehicle do you have. I would assume its going to be the max body lift, which would be 3" and for suspension would be 4" for 4wd and 3" for 2wd

Re: Want to fit 33x12.50 with 17 inch rim

Not positive, but I would guess 3" since it says that 33s will work with a body lift alone with trimming and with body lift and suspension lift together.

As long as the tip fits tight over the pipe the clamps will work. You can also buy tips that are made to clamp on. They have screws that tighten down on the pipe

When I did mine I put some exhaust sealant on it but that's not really necessary. Should be able to just clamp them together and then hang it off of something then be good to go
