Angry I know what you mean by that

I know what you mean by that were I live everything is flat but I was in San Diego CA last year boy do they have some steep roads I was leaving Home Depot and didn’t realize the road out was so steep well it was raining also so I got 50 feet up the street when a jackass pulled out in front of me so I had to stop wow was that a no fun situation lost traction and started to slide down the street was I freaked.

@Trent479, did you get yours off of ebay as well?
@98Dakaz- Had that happen before to! Its so irritating! This snow was awful today though, usually i can get through it just fine but today it was just to much. I couldn't get up my hill going forward, tried backwards and nearly made it before ilost traction. Luckily the plow came by a few hrs later

If anything the whole experience today confirmed my suspicions of a LSD rear end in my truck. Back right was spinning, lost traction and the other started going as well

Finally got around to installing it, man that was an easy job! It was literally a 2 bolt job... I undid one bolt for the old air box and it came out, and did up one clamp to hold the intake on my stock air hat and was done. Is there no air sensors or anything on these things?
