    Jason, what are your thoughts on the water/meth kits that people are running with their SC's? Have you ever thought of one. I've done some research regarding them, but figured I'd ask you since you know a ton about superchargers.

    It's a trucks. I don't need more power than it already has. I would have never done the 7th injector if it wasn't for the pinging problem. Besides...what happens when you are in the middle of the desert if you run out of water or methanol?

    So I had some time to start prepping for Moab. Ass of the truck has been sagging in the last year so figured I'd get the springs re-arched. Nothing is simple with me.....

    Pulling the leafs was the definition of a pain in the ass. What I thought was the bolts were siezed in the sleeves. Alas I was wrong. All four nuts on the shackle had backed off (or the bolt stretched) between 1/16-1/8". That was with nylon nuts and fine thread pattern. The slack was enough to allow the bolt to oval out the shackles as well as banana two out of the four bushing sleeves and bend all 4 bolts.

    Soooo...up next:

    • Re-arched springs
    • Delrin bushings
    • 3/4" F911 bolts
    • Chromoly sleeves

    And the "oops":

    Well since it's all taken apart...may as well.
    I finally have a fully functional e-brake after 2 years of not having one with the tundra axle swap. It's such a bastard setup. Somehow I was able to mate a tundra and a tacoma e-brake cables with some help from the hardware store, some old parts of the original cable, a bungee cord, and random shit in my garage to make a fully functional e-brake.

    Sooooooo my shackles are indeed fucked. I went back and forth trying to drill it out and maybe use a larger bolt and sleeve. Just not happening.

    So new shackles it is! Sneak peak of the jberry proof shackles from my fabricator.
    Yes...someone else is building them :anonymous:

    Kinda.
    But those with a keen eye will see the gusseted bolt sleeves instead of just a hole drilled thru the plate.
