Thanks Ray,

I am setting up the bed of our pickup this week so I will post some photos of that mod as I start from scratch adding the toolbox and fuel cans etc.

Also going to add the shock absorber kits to the 5er rear axles ,so I’ll try to add photos of that mod as well.

I understand from several folks including Eddie that the shock kits make…[Read more]

This photo is of the completed install.The sealant I used to caulk on either side of the mod was extra bathroon sealant I had from a project that goes on white but dries clear.It will keewp the dirt out of the cracks there.

Yes,I realize I will loose about an inch there but it is worth it and I’ll just pack around it.

Well,I sold my old wheels on Ebay a few weeks ago and they went all the way to Yuma,Az.

Kinda makes me wonder if some poor soul down there broke one of his out there in the boonies somewhere and had to leave his poo poo wagon sittin in the desert until mine arrived to get him back on the road.

That’s strange.I still remember delivering brand new Outbacks down south after Katrina and they all had hardwood,or hardwood looking floors.

Well,I got my new wheels yesterday and thought I would try to show a photo.I haven’t done the complete install yet,but they will fit perfectly.There is a 2 inch plastic shim on the original axle which I will cut in half and install the new wheel with a washer on the outside and then the cotter pin in a newly drilled hole.

I’ll sell the old wheels…[Read more]
