LBZ: Tensioner & pulley replacement
There are two 18mm bolts on the engine that hold the fan shroud. They are on the passenger side engine. Remove those and the 13mm (I think its 13mm) bolt by the oil fill cap and you can move it out the way just enough. Just make sure the rubber gasket thing that goes around the fan shroud is... -

Heatwave Phoenix
Must have been hot there today. I remember when you built my trans and I was at the shop. It was about 90/95 outside but your shop was still cool. It was about 85 at my job in Huntington Beach today. Was not bad at all. But we are pretty close to the beach.- SoCalMike

"OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?
I am at stock height and they fit fine. Cut the wheel well liner a little and pulled back the ebreak cable. The +18 offset helps. No rubbing at all. I have ran it lower than stock height also with no rubbing too.- SoCalMike

Rare parts
I have the g2's and had the old style. The g2's are bigger. And they won't pinch the boot at full drop out on the spindle side like the old rp tierods. One zerk is on the tierods itself (spindle side) and the other is on the stock centerlink on my truck. So no need for two fittings on the...- SoCalMike

04.5 LLY Built Suncoast Running Hot?
At 175f (transmission temperature) the fluid level should be at the middle of the lower hot hash mark. This is what my builder has told me. I just make sure at operating temp or as close as I can get it to 175f, the fluid level is in the middle of the "hot" section of the dipstick.- SoCalMike

If you run dex3, at 240/250f the additives will break down and the fluid will be trash..- SoCalMike
