Default Check your bolts!!!

So we noticed Neo's truck was being extra squeaky today. When we got back to the house we were able to isolate the noise. The bolt where the back of the tranny attaches to the crossmember was loose.

So I get under mine to look at it and check the bolts on the skids, UCP, etc. I noticed one of the bolts for the front driveline where it attaches to the t-case was backed almost all the way out. I checked the other three and they were all loose.

So we both tightened everything up. I checked Bebe's truck and nothing was loose, and we'll check the others in the morning.

Just a heads-up for those of you that are out banging these things around.

The washboard in Death Valley rattled 2 skid plate bolts loose. I'm glad I heard them rattling around.

With these new rigs I recommend getting out the torque wrench and going over the vital area. I found others that were loose.

While you're checking your bolts, you might want to check the nutz too. Hahaha

I had a two bolts missing and had to replace them. One guy had his skid plat fall off on the hi-way. This was last year I believe.
