Thread: Are all tires E-rated these days?

    Looks good Mike, I'm interested in hearing if they effect your mpg one direction or the other. Also, I hadn't seen the light bar you built into your bumper, nice work!

    Looks awesome. Not an SUV out there that looks better than the 3G.

    Perhaps I'll start keeping some stats. What I really need to do is knock the dents out of my fuel tank to regain some of the mileage I lost years ago, then hopefully the up size will just be a wash.

    The light bar was an addition after some tweakers made a subtraction. I added the build onto the bumper rebuild post.

    That sounds familiar. I kick myself every time I drive the 2nd gen for not knocking those dents out when I had my tank out years ago. I can't let my truck go down too much less than half way or I start running out of gas.

    Sounds like we should have a gas tank repair party.

    Been there, done that. A 2x3 and a large hammer did the trick.

    Did you just pull the panel under the seat, then pull the pump, and knock the dent out from the inside? I keep meaning to get around to that.

    You probably could. I pounded mine out when the tank was out for the upgraded fuel pump. Luckily the pump is located in such a spot as to provide us perfect access to the place we most often dent our tanks.

    I am not entirely sure you can get the pump assy out through that door. I removed mine from the truck to do.

    That's nothing a sawzall won't fix, although I'm not sure that's Matt's style.
