Sorry it took so long. Been away from the internets for a couple days. Here's the transfer case from a DC, both sides. Appears to be unsupported on its own, attached to supported transmission
Unfortunately I don't have anything around me that offers any sort of lifetime plan. I get to pay every time I go in. The closest place that would offer a lifetime plan would be at least 45 minutes away, and I don't drive down that way very often.
I can get pictures of my double cab, but I'm not sure if the transfer case support is different from an access cab? My guess is no, but without seeing an access cab I can't be sure.
I'm not terribly interested in a tire that isn't winter rated, which is why I'm still heavily leaning towards the BFG KO2. Winters around me can get pretty rough, with heavy snow and ice. Mountain passes around here routinely require snow-rated tires and all wheel drive. I don't plan on...
Got it aligned today at Les Schwab. The place that did it a week ago wanted to charge me again for it, and they couldn't get me in for another week. So Les Schwab got me in today and for the next 30 days any adjustments are free.
Before/After

Caster: 2.0/3.2
Camber: 0.5/0.3
Toe: 0.16...
Sorry it took so long, but here are the pictures:
Thanks! That gives me something to shoot for. I'll take those back to the tech and let them work on it again.
So you other 1st gen owners with aftermarket UCA's (Camburg, Total Chaos, SPC, etc)....what are your alignment numbers? Specifically what is your caster set to??
Factory spec is 0.5 degrees....upper end of factory spec is 2 degrees. Camburg says to set it at 6 degrees. What do you all...
I'll have to look into the AT3....looks less expensive than the KO2's. Snow rated is also a good thing here. Last winter wasn't bad, but the winter before was brutal!
I'm pretty sure I had to bend mine out to the fender slightly so it didn't hit the hood. Once installed I then bent the...
Camburg UCA's. I know they increase caster over stock, which from what I understand is a good thing. I didn't realize you could push the LCA's back and decrease the caster again....that must be what they did. I don't have a printout because the shop that did the work had a third-party shop do...
Took a closer look under the truck and saw that they went ahead and just replaced the entire LCA's along with the bushings. The shop probably destroyed the old LCA's cutting the bolts off. So that's part of the expense...the cheapest I found OEM ones for online was $200 a piece. Plus new cam...
Thanks for your input regarding tires. I'm definitely leaning heavily toward the BFG's. Yes everyone has them, but that I think speaks highly of the tire.
Got the truck back today from several days in the shop. I feel bad for the guys who had to work on it! All four cam bolts had to be...
I've looked casually at the Cooper ST Maxx, but I haven't met anyone who's owned them so I have nothing to go on. The guys around here seem to like the BFG's in the snow, though maybe they aren't quite as good as the Duratrac's. One of the main reason's I'm leaning towards BFG's is I can get...
Not quite fixed yet. The truck is actually in the shop at the moment getting the LCA bushings replaced. I would attempt it myself but I have absolutely no time to do so...between work, family, new babies, other responsibilities, I don't have a spare couple Saturday's to work on it. Plus I...
My family used to head down to Guerro Negro all the time to fish. There's a place to the west of it called Laguna Manuela that was an awesome place to catch sand bass. The lagoon is behind a reef of pristine sand dunes (sometimes we found old shipwrecks in the sand that had been...
Look out how much available travel there is. What is that, like 18 inches until the front tire contacts the fender?? This thing was awesome before the wreck, and from the looks of it will be incredible when finished. I'm now suffering from major truck jealousy.
The truck was already lifted a bit when I bought it. I lifted the front more when I switched to ICON coilovers. When I replaced the CV axles with CVJ remanufactured ones I did not use hose clamps. The inner boots are hi-angle boots, and the outer ones are normal. The clamps they used seem to...
Duratrac's aren't directional, so I guess theoretically I could do a cross rotation. I don't have a full-size spare right now (on my list) so I'm only doing 4 tire rotations.
I went ahead and rotated the tires myself yesterday. While I was under there I got a good look at the LCA...
