    Thanks man. One of the toughest decisions I've had to make regarding a vehicle. I hope the next guy takes care of her.

    Planktons 2017 Rebel Mods

    I had to let her go yesterday. I couldn't justify $600+ a month in gas just to get to work and back, so I traded her in for a 2013 Chevy Cruze. Something cheap so have some breathing room for a couple of years and I can save for something fast again. Man, this was one of the best vehicles I have...

    Yowza!! $1700 brakes?

    I paid around 1k for the Power Stop Z23 kit with all 4 rotors, calipers, and pads and had a friend help install them. They've been on for about a year now and they've been outstanding.

    50mph vibration

    Static: Applying weight to a calculated mid-point balance area. Dynamic: Applying weights to exact balance points. This video explains the difference better, which can be very significant in certain situations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAxQXulIbK8

    From the day I got it to today:

    2010 stock 1500 sway to left under acceleration, to the right when left off

    For future reference I used Precision rear control arms through O'Reilly's: Part#'s Upper - 2CB25313 Lower - 13CB25312 ($145.99 x4) Total = $640 after taxes. They have the tabs to attach the brake lines.

    2010 stock 1500 sway to left under acceleration, to the right when left off

    Rear Upper/Lower control arms fixed it. This forum is a great resource, so thanks again.

    Planktons 2017 Rebel Mods

    I finally got around to installing the brush plate. Also needed new rear upper and lower control arms, along with a new track bar while trying to find the reason for the rear end being lose. That tightened everything up real nice and it drives like it's new again.

    2010 stock 1500 sway to left under acceleration, to the right when left off

    I just replaced the Track Bar and it's still pulling, so Upper and Lower Control Arms are next. The Track Bar steel sleeves did have a ton of play in them.

    This exact thing has been happening to my 2017. I'm guessing ^ "track bar" means sway bar?

    I had better days.

    Yep, that was one clean truck and it looks like you took real good care of her. From one Rebel owner to another, I hope they catch that ******* and that you mend up well.

    Toyo MT's in the snow and ice?

    I have a brand new set of Durtracs on my Rebel and it's a heck of a lot better in the snow than the Toyo's that were initially on it. I also just put a set of Goodyear Assurance WeatherReadys on my daughters Civic. We're about to get 12"-16" this week too, so we should be good. No snow days for us.

    Engine Squeals on start up

    My 17 squeals when it's really cold (below 0° F) for about a minute or so, then quiets down. My Trailhawk did it too.

    Air Suspension Deflate

    Thanks for that. I'm subbed to that thread so I can find it when I get some time. I've been kicking around a few ideas of what to do and one of them is to just trade it in for a TRX. I'll ride it out for now and see if I can get to finding out exactly whats going first though. Just need it to be...

    Air Suspension Deflate

    No, I haven't had a chance to get to it since it's been so cold. It was -5F here this morning and I didn't start or drive it since Monday, so sure enough the front end had dropped.

    CAI?

    You have to remove all of the other air bottlenecks between the CAI and the exhaust tips. More air does = more HP, but that air throughput has to be more of a constant than just bolting on an aftermarket CAI. For example, the stock headers create a bit of a pinch point for air flow (down wind of...

    Frozen Tailgate

    I went to open mine yesterday and it was frozen shut, but luckily today it's above freezing. I just sprayed the latches with some WD40.

    Also, with 35" tires you'd need to recalibrate your speedometer.

    I don't think you can do a leveling kit with the air suspension. I know BDS offers some 4" and 6" lifts that work with it, but I haven't looked into leveling kits. A quick search turns this up...

    No, you'd need a 2"+ leveling kit.

    Here's a video review. The air suspension is explained at around the 6:10 mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_8v7d6VNNY
