Did somewhat of a truck thing, loaded up all my collapsed boxes from parts and crap throughout the summer, and hauled it over to my neighbors to burn in their outdoor furnace, along with a shopvac I gave them. Then my pup and me went for a ride.

My old nuts weren't too bad but there is NO comparison in the quality.

I was surprised that when I had the right side of the truck jacked up (with a floor jack) that I couldn't open and close the cab door. Once I opened the door it dropped 3/4 of an inch on the latch side.

Once the truck returned to earth, it opens and closes fine. Is this normal?

Pecked out on my iPhone.

I'd dare to say, it's a trade-off to the no-rust of the aluminum body. It flexes more than the frame itself.

Holy ****! How common is this? I've never heard of it.
