Btw, had to beat the hell out the rotors to bust them loose off the dodge. The gmc rotors up front had a set screw holding them on. Learn something everyday lol

Glad you got the lug nuts replaced before a flat tire in BFE.

I have 295/65/20 Ridge Grapplers on my F250 and they need to be replaced soon. 3 years ago I bought the set for $1,200 and now they are just shy of $2,000. It’s sad what is happening!

last summer, I had to replace all three driveshafts on my '88 4Runner. That was expensive. Luckily at work we build most drive line components. Gotta pay for just parts. Saves some. Had to have a new pto driveshaft for the tractor since it busted in half. Went from a 1" shaft to a 2" cost about $100. Had my front driveshaft rebuilt (usually I do it myself) but cost me around $17.

20 years ago I went to a Chevy dealership for brake pads for an S10. A freaking S10. They wanted $210.00. I bailed and went to Vato Zone. At the time OE pads from a dealer for my F250 we're around $55.
