Did you do a rear spring over? If so, the stock length will work.

1. Stock bushings will work, but, because yours are old, upgrade. 2. What Bilstein did you use? I used the 5100's for a Silverado and they were stiff but with all the added weight on the front, they were perfect. Bilstein 24-185950

Too bad, good luck on your trip. You'll like the DRZ, I had one for 5+ years. You may want to upgrade the rear shock, your back will thank you.

I would still want shirts since this is a new location.

Due to the unfortunate circumstances, I have some rooms in the house I rented for the Sand Hollow trip. If you are interested in sharing a house with JPaul and I please send me a message for more details. It is a large 5 bedroom home.

Remember to assemble it exactly as the procedure says. If the marks do not line up you will get the pop like I did in low range.

Same fluid. I always used 75-90 synthetic.

I had a similar issue only in 4 Low, the gears were out of sync when reassembled. Use a GoPro type camera with a magnetic mount to video several areas around the TC. Has worked for my for many issues. Make sure the planetary gears are lined up correctly.

Drain the TC fluid and check for metal and burnt smell.

Yes, working on that this week. I will add pics when I am done. I am adding a 18" finned aluminum cooler. It will add 24 ounces of fluid, which is a lot for the I5 and it will be mounted on the new cross member Steve made for the front of the frame behind the radiator. Perfect spot.

Colorado vs H3 pump.

TB pump installed. Tight but it clears.

Colorado pump installed.

H3 pump vanes.

Trailblazer pump vanes, slightly larger.

Colorado pump vanes. Smallest of the bunch.

Since my SAS I recently started to have power steering pump whine after an hour of wheeling. On the street and highway everything is quite but as soon as there is constant demand on the trail, the howling starts. Clearly the FJ80 box and PSC ram assist are too much and the fluid is getting...

OMG, Tide Pods are soooo last year.
