Sounds like bad u-joints and not the engine mounts. Bad u-joints will cause vibration at speed and not at idle.

One thing that I did do however was clean up the rust spots as best as you can and seal them with an epoxy paint (made for sealing rust). Then scuff up the rest of the hitch and spray on your final coating. If I remember right I did two coats for a little extra protection. If you do go the bedliner ...

I can't remember at all what brand of bedliner I used, whatever O'Reiley's had on the shelf. I really liked how it turned out and it held up very well for almost two years before I traded it in. I liked the textured look of it better than just a painted surface. Now I wish I would have done a DIY on...

I did this on my old '05 that I used to have. If i remember right, there are two bolts on each side of the hitch assembly that bolt to the frame (total of four bolts). Just unbolt it and it drops right out - you have to disconnect the trailer wire harness before dropping the hitch. I did remove the ...

It is really simple, you just have to put the plastic screw-in retainers in the holes where the factory push-in retainers go. Then just use the screws to secure the bug deflector to the hood. I think i still have the written instructions on my work bench somewhere. I will try to find them and scan t...

I will try and take some picture of it tonight when I get home. The only thing is that I forgot to pull the screw mount inserts off my old path but I think you should find something at the local hardware store that will work (they aren't anything fancy).

2011 Radio Removal

Does anyone have a schematic, diagram or write up on removing the 2011 stock radio and lcd screen? I couldn't seem to find anything on this. I might post a DIY if no one has done one yet.

2005 Hood Bug Deflector

Anyone interested in a 2005 hood bug deflector? I just traded my 2005 in for a 2011 and pulled the deflector off before I traded it so i could transfer it to the new one but they must have changed the front end a little cause it wont fit. I believe it will fit 2005-2007 models (not positive). Anyway...

Did you ever find out what the inputs were on the back of the unit? I recently just traded in my 05 for the 11 SV and was wondering if i could add anything to the factory radio setup.

Thanks for the info! I thought they resolved the radiator/transmission issue with the 2008 but that not a big deal as i did the bypass on my 05.
