So you contacted Metal Cloak just for future knowledge? I may have misunderstood. Happens often on forums. Best of luck getting your shocks replaced for free.
How long ago did you check? I was told it would be a month a few weeks back when they first came out. Checked the site yesterday and saw this along with the rear set. I will reach out tomorrow and confirm.
I did not read through all the posts here so forgive me if already discussed on this thread. I was thinking about Rocksports by Metal cloak. My shocks are making noise as well @ 33k miles.
These are in consideration for sure, waiting for real life reviews before I go all in. Especially at the...
For me, I love the look of a stubby, weight was important as well and needed to clear a winch without obstructing the radiator much. I found that the rugged ridge stubby worked best for my needs and accepted the factory fog lights as well. Little to no rake at all.
@ShadowsPapa Great feedback. I was hoping you would reply good or bad. Thank you for your input sir! Greatly appreciated.
@sabinjo Absolutely and like @ShadowsPapa stated there is a TSB on this issue and maybe worth mentioning to the service writer should they push back on any repairs. Keep us...
I received the call to come pick up the truck! Below is a description of work performed. I will pick it up within the next day or so. I am no mechanic by any means and looking for some input as to what was done. I consider myself lucky as I really like my service writer and shop foreman at the...
Quick update! Finally able to drop it off yesterday morning. Unable to send out the oil for testing like a lot of members recommended. Shame on me for sure. They said it will take about a week, have to get into the engine. Let’s see what they find/repair.
For sure! Thanks for the input mt friend. I woke up this morning wanting to get it resolved asap. So I am now trying to make arrangements to be with out the vehicle for a few days ..
That is the scenario I have .. Every time only on start up and disappears. I also had to leave it overnight and start it up with the technician in the morning to verify and diagnose. I recommend you do the same and avoid the back & forth. Let me know your outcome 🍻
My experience exactly. Which is why I continued to drive it and not worry. 1/4 mile drive it’s gone! Get back in 2hours later start it up and will not make a sound.
However I had a few others at work various times ask me what’s that sound when in the parking lot before leaving for the day...
Spot on sir. That is the same explanation the tech provided me. He took me into the shop and ironically they had a Mojave having the engine rebuilt (Ran it with no oil) ouch! Tech showed me old vs new as described. Pointed out the needle bearings that are worn, and the hole for lift creating by...
Thanks for the info! I have seen multiple members sampling the oil for the first few changes. I understand why now. Agree with you on the oil analysis and might do just that as I can’t bring it for the repair for at least 6 weeks. As for the diagnosis, the oil sample will help with the expected...
