Hello Im shopping for tires and I always liked the bridgestone dualer at's but I never had the bridgestone dualer at revo's and I have seen that a lot of people on here are getting the general grabber at2's so what is everyones thoughts about both of these tires and what kind of mileage are...

Confirmed the the correct fluid was used and the fluid level is correct at first I thought it might be a torque converter problem because when you let off the gas and get back on sometimes it just spins but it only seems to do it somewhere around 40 mph so it seems to be in the one gear does...

Correct yardsale I had the fluid changed to see if it would correct the problem but there was no change and it doesn't do it all the time , yesterday on my way to work ( 30 miles ) it acted up about three or four times and today on my way to work it didn't act up at all thanks for the ideas...

Get new sensor right from the start you will save time and agreavation and have a flex socket ( I think it was 8mm )

I think that might be very expensive and a lot of work < just visit your local weld shop and get a price for them to cut out the class II hitch and weld in a class III hitch I did it in 4 or 5 hours and I don't have all the fancy tools that a good weld shop would have < just my thought good...

I also wanted a class III hitch when I bought my 2007 trac but I couldn't find a v6 with a class III hitch and found lots of v8 with them but I wanted to stick with a v6 so and also as mentioned above the hitch on the 2007-2010 are welded into the cross member which is welded to the frame and...
