My AC has a slow leak in it somewhere. Need to get it fixed.

I've done green stuff for a long time. I've used their rotors but I think I will change back to OEM

Same here. I currently have the Powerstop pads and rotors. No issues. I think the green stuff pads stopped better but these work fine. I think its more to do with the pads than the rotors. When I switched over I went with EBC pads and rotors and it was better than stock for sure. But people are reporting the same results with just the pads.

Got my new Crown Performance airline for the front locker and installed it. But... The old one was actually still good even though melted. Put it on the bench and pressurized it and didn't notice any leaks. So maybe I'll use it and run a pressure gauge into the cab. Now to figure out why I didn't hear the locker activate under air pressure previously. Baby steps. Normally with the arb you can hear/feel it bang into place.

Suggestions for best pad/rotor combo: go.

ABS goes crazy on mine if they have too much grip but I doubt youll have that issue with all the snow you guys get. I hated my OE set up until I got bigger tars - ABS would lock up if I hit a small pot hole while braking. Now my foots to the floor and it barley stops, but that could also be due to rust

Rust? Or flat spots on the tires. Does it even run these days? :)

OEM rotors and green stuff pads

x2. This will be my next braking setup. I like the EBC rotors and pads but the OEM rotors and greenstuff pads def stopped better.

Where the hell have you been? Have you gotten your engine swap done? If so, you better post pics and details mofo

Washed my truck and my fiancee's car today. The windshield washers could no longer get the layers of pollen off my windshield so I figured it was time for a quick wash.

I know a lot of you guys don't wash your truck regularly (me included) but I was pretty shocked at how bad/grimy/rotting the window seals are getting now. I scrubbed em all down for awhile and then lubed em up with some armorall. Hopefully that'll keep the grime and decay down for awhile.

Finally replacing the wheel bearing I lost at Jambo. $120 for the bearing and two Seals and $50 to have a shop press the the old one out and the new one in. Hopefully this is the last of the fixes from Jambo.
