When I purchased the truck back in April, it had FALKEN in the rear and SUMITOMO in the front. I do NOT like having different tires on the same rig and am not sure WHY people do this?

Because they had a bad alignment or curbed something which led to two tires being destroyed. Then they were too cheap to buy a full set of 4 and went with the cheapest route possible... people who do not care about their vehicles will do this on the reg.

Even simpler than that, the tires were never rotated and one axle wore out faster than the other and the dealer decided to use whatever tires they had for cheap instead of replacing all 4 tires.

I'm slacking on this and really need to do it.

+1 also.

Tried to lube the front end today. Got to the zerks on the ball joints, tie rods, center links but failed epic-style to get the pitman or idler arm ones even with the skid plate removed.
How the heck do you get to those and get the stinking fitting to lock on with a standard grease gun fitting?

Also added some Lucas power steering treatment to the psp.

Front windows tinted to match the rear @ ~18% and got the brow on the windshield @ 5%

can u give me the scoop on this vette servo deal.what is it and whats it do?

There are a few treads on it. It basically makes shifts a little shorter because of its larger surface area on the apply plate. So shifts will seem slightly stiffer.

what happened in my Yukon...

My truck was broken into tonight. I went to the Atlanta Falcons Friday Night Lights Scrimmage in Suwanee, and while my Truck was parked at a church, someone stabbed a screwdriver through my door and popped my lock, broke my dash to pieces, cut my wires to my navigation, and stole my Radio, and Stainless steel Kimber Ultra Carry II. The most ****** thing is the gun, and the broken dash board. That was my night

Thanks Jochen! :boti:

Nope, doesn't cover it. I am lease/purchase my house, and because my truck was so new(to me) I had not added it to my home insurance. Car insurance doesn't cover contents.
