    Replacing Duratrac's

    At 35K, I went to my local tire guy and explained to him the noise. He checked the the tires, rebalanced, performed an alignment because it turned out I had some minor cupping on two tires. Now I'm at 38K with 9/32nds still left on the tires. The noise levels improved now that the cupping has...

    Any pictures of how the Conti Terrain look on the stock rebel wheel?

    Post your Rebel pics!

    I have the original duratracs 4 years later (33K on them) and they scream! Looks like many one or two of them is cupping a tad. Thanks for your feedback on the BFGs.

    I know this is a tired out question (pun intended haha), but how do you like the BFG's over the stock duratracs? Specifically noise, ride comfort, and, if any, MPG changes?

    Replacing Duratrac's

    I’m in the exact same situation. I have 35k miles on my Rebel, and all I hear on the highway is the tires. I’m looking to replace. I keeping going back and forth between the KO2 and Copper AT3 XLT (stock size and load rating). Any long term updates you can share regarding the Wildpeaks?

    How do you like the Toyo's over the stock duratracs in terms of NVH on the road?

    Largest tires i could fit on stock wheels and suspension

    How do you like these over the stock Goodyear Wranglers that come stock? Did you notice any improvements in the ride quality or drop in noise levels? I'm considering these when time comes to replace the stock tires.

    Squeal / High Pitch Noise from Brakes - 2019 Model

    Well its been a month since I installed the moan kit (a little more involved than I assumed it would be). Bottom line is, it unfortunately did not solve the high pitch sound I occasionally hear my truck make while lightly tapping the brakes above 40MPH+. Since it only does the squeal...

    Squeal / High Pitch Noise from Brakes - 2019 Model

    Couple things, (1) I have 17,000+ miles, so the dealership will not entertain brake related issues. (2) the symptom/condition mentioned in this TSB is not what I'm having. The brakes work well when cold. It's after a period of warming up that the moan shows up. I can reproduce it on the spot...

    Squeal / High Pitch Noise from Brakes - 2019 Model

    I agree with you. If you’re mechanically inclined, some times it’s best to do things yourself. You wouldn’t happen to have a parts number or link to what moan kit you have, would you? I’d like to give the $50 fix myself as well!

    Squeal / High Pitch Noise from Brakes - 2019 Model

    Nice! I've used powerstop on my previous car (2011 Camaro). Other than a little more dust and firmer pedal feel when brakes were cold, they're rotor/brake pad application for that car worked as well as OEM, Well, please keep us updated! I'm not driving much, due to COVID, so the noise brakes...

    Squeal / High Pitch Noise from Brakes - 2019 Model

    I hate to rehash this brake issue, but did you replace your brake pads after they started making the high pitch noise? If so, did that fix the noise issue? I started to have the high pitch noise reproduced by using light pedal pressure coming down from speeds 40mph+ at around 15,000mi, but it...

    Stop and go shudder/vibration

    I have the short bed (5'7"). I've been driving with hill assist off and the shutter has definitely improved. However, it is definitely still present from time to time, but no only in the rear. I wonder if it could be the nature of the 3.92 gearing? Anyone with the 3.21 axle ratio also have the...

    Stop and go shudder/vibration

    I've had the take-off vibration since around 3k (I have close to 15K now). I had the latest transmission TSB done applicable to my truck. It didn't make it better or worse. Over the months of owning the truck, I have noticed that the vibration does not occur when you are on the slightest of...

    Anyone have aftermarket resi shocks?

    Good luck with your question. Hopefully someone on here can provide you with some advice on the resi shock. Not to high jack the thread, but nice wheel and tire setup! How are you liking the KO2s over the stock duratrac? Any noticeable differences in everyday driving or wet weather driving...

    Rear Cabin Rattle/Tick over bumps

    I have definitely heard/experienced this sound. It only does it when it is in the downward position and empty. Usually when it is up or the seat has some weight on it, there is no sound. Back to the rear glass. It has gotten colder, and the rattle takes much longer to go away when I turn on the...

    Rear Cabin Rattle/Tick over bumps

    Well I solved the window rattle, I think. I placed an 18 gauge wire in between the metal window rail and plastic trim piece that holds it in place. I went for a drive and the rattle was still there. Than I decided to turn the rear window defroster on, and about 2-3 mins of driving around, the...

    Rear Cabin Rattle/Tick over bumps

    I did the Velcro clip fix yesterday. Turns out that’s not the clicking sound I was hearing. I had my wife drive and I sat in the back. Seems to be my rear glass window. If I placed pressure on the glass, the ticking sound was substantially reduced. On to placing an insulated wire between the...

    Rear Cabin Rattle/Tick over bumps

    Yes, thanks for pointing that out! My truck is an Oct. 18 built. The clicking noise just started a few days ago, not sure if the relative temperature drop affected anything. I'll give the flock tape fix mentioned in the "Panoramic Sunroof Headliner Noise" tread a try this afternoon and see if it...
