Re: Can a 6'6" freak of nature sleep in the back of a Astro?

Hey guys, Can a 6'6" freak of nature sleep in the back of a Astro comfortably? I searched for the dimensions of the Gen 2 Astros and could not find the dimensions of the cargo area. Yes, you should be able. We have 81 inch long bed in our Astrid and still enough space for 20L water tank betwee...

Re: New Cooper Discoverer STmaxx all terrains

I don't see A/T 3 on the list. I got those tires about year ago and they are fantastic.

Not that aggressive as S/T maxx though, but I am very happy about them, because aggressive would mean lower mpg (which already is pretty bad) and more road noise (which I don't want) :)

P.S. Looks good!

Re: DIY lift kit 2003 Safari

Bump , for those of you BC's lower mainland .The listed bolts on the first page are available through your local Fastenal store for $32 , although they need to order them in . North Shore Offroad sells the body lift blocks for $3.50 a piece so that's less than $25 for the set :) I now have everythi...

Re: New S-10 rear leaves and Torsion keys

What year of S10 springs did you use? I'd like to do a similar lift, and would like to know what to look out for. Thanks! Most people use these, incl. me on my 2003 AWD: http://www.sdtrucksprings.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1430&zenid=54add264aa77561493fa85caf0cefd46 So...

Transfer case to front differential noise

While checking transfer case to front differential drive shaft, noticed that there is slight play and noise when I move it, just wondering if that is normal (acceptable) or not? Check out video bellow.

Re: 4.10's in 2005 AWD

So I have few questions... I will be rebuilding my rear end soon and putting G80, but now I start thinking that it's maybe a good time to make it a bit more complicated and re-gear everything to 4.10 (4.11?!)... What I have found quickly looking at RockAuto is that they sell RearEnd gear ring and pi...
