    Kat’s 11612 block heater failure

    I purchased this heater for my M998 in Jan ‘20. Failed this season unfortunately just as we have snow and very low temperatures. Curious if others have had issues and if there are perhaps more durable heaters from other suppliers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tie Rod End Recommendations?

    I recently scored a nice deal for OEM AMG TRE on an auction site. All 4 were worn on my M998. In a nutshell I replaced TRE, Idler, drag link and Pittman. Took the opportunity to upgrade to A2 variant on the latter parts. Steering is tight/precise now. Moog TRE for zero toe are interesting...

    Auto Part Store CV Axles OK?

    AZ shafts have been fine on my M998 for several months. If they break they are under warranty. I don’t wheel my truck. If inclined to I’d carry spares and/or upgrade to 12k style Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Is it possible for water to get in my front differential?

    If the gears were water contaminated it would be prudent to pull the cover to thoroughly inspect the gears and bearings Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anyone use headlight polish on the gauges?

    I used the low-tech method of toothpaste polish followed by wax. It worked pretty darn well for my gauges Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
