    I notched a couple bed crossmembers, and didn't raise the bed at all. Bed looks completely stock, aside from the missing bumperettes.

    Any tips on removing upper torque rods?

    Couple people have said they removed the spring pack. I had to replace the u bolts last time I removed one. Not sure if there is enough room for a socket and breaker bar.

    winch drive shaft "retubing"--"dead-spline" in line with ear or 90 degree offset?

    I would guess it's a dead spline, as in the yokes are fixed at each end, and the shaft does not have to move shorter/longer while running. Think doghead did a retube on his 5 ton.

    I just got a duramax truck, engine and tranny are huge compared to my old 350/nv4500 truck. Matter of fact everything underneath is big.

    Better to rebuild or replace master cylinder/wheel cylinders

    I've had good luck honing and replacing seals in wheel cylinders. As long as they don't have bad pitting. Did a couple with some small pitting, but not where the seal would rub it.

    As was mentioned earlier, please refrain from posting about drinking, and other hare-brained ideas. You are more than welcome to drink, but please keep it under control, or you may be asked to leave. We have had Pete(manager) and the local police remove people before, but so far no SS...
