"OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?
- Thread starter Hot COCOAL
- Start date
On my way home from work the other night and I go to stop at a light and the break pedal goes to the floor. Luckily I wasn't going fast and was able to get it stopped. I wasn't to far from the house so I limped it home. Crawled under it and found the seven bolts holding the track bar mount to the diff broken off in the rear end. This also caused a brake in the hard line for the rear pass break.
Not sure what caused it as I cant think of anything out of the ordinary happening. It does look like the track bar end has gone to s*** but cant imagine that would cause or have enough force to break seven bolts off.
Should be fun getting the broken pieces out of the rear end.

Tonight, I will turn 402,000 miles on the odometer when I arrive in Los Angeles, CA. Oh, I washed it and rotated my tires this morning.
Got new BD module this evening stuck it in there and regained tap shifting capability.

Are you still working on marketing that rear AirBag and Link kit yet?
Not anytime soon.
I just started a new business and all my time and money is going into it. So at this point designing/manufacturing a kit is not possible.
I do have a couple trucks that I'm going to build 3 and 4 link kits on at my home shop for close friends when I get the time. On that note, setting up a weld on kit would be much easier. However, with the amount of fabrication that is needed I don't want anyone with a Home Depot mig welder trying to do it at home and then coming after me when they have a failure.
