What have you done to your truck today?

When I pulled mine I found that when I drilled a small hole in the side of each bushing and pushed a grease zerk in that worked excellent for greasing them but they still sounded like a bird chirping. Even if something else winds up being the noise at least it made the ride a lot smoother. But, it was a lot quieter than usual so that makes me wonder if 2 things were making the same noise.
Im contemplating doing it after work but not sure where it was drilled.

Nice truck! what kind of push mower is that in the bed? I notice it looks like it has some sort of vertical pull starter on it. I mow with one of those every week, and have for about the last 13 years of my life. Don't see many of them left anymore.

Thanks Gary!
One thing I'm concerned about is rubbing on the radius arms. I know my old 31x10.5's with 15x8 wheels rubbed on the radius arms, and even though the new wheels are 15x10 and the tires are 33x12.5, I think that I'll be running into the same issues with the radius arms.

Yesterday I changed the oil and the PCV valve.
Tomorrow I am going to have my 33x12.50x15 tires swapped onto some Procomp 15x10 rims with 3.75" backspace. I'll let you guys know how they work out. The PO put these tires on the stock rims and they rub well before the steering wheel gets to the stop.
