    97% sure that's the issue. We'll see! Better be for $500.

    Lol. I hope that's it. From the research that's what it points to.

    Well looks like the alternator fried my battery or it was on its way out and this is what pushed it over the edge. Sears replaced it under warranty. Was dropping from 12 volts to 4 volts sporadically.

    I also received & installed my new TRS ballasts much nicer then the old style.

    Ambiguous /Rechelon Aesthetics took care of my bad ballast on the quickness.

    I guess I meant when you drop one front tire down your whole truck doesn't tip as much because of your extra downtravel.

    Also damn you I'm ordering my snorkel today. I want a pictar with your truck and locos in Moab :drool:

    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    Ohhh shit you didn't know??? Aaron totalled the truck 2 days ago. I was just over at his house picking parts worth salvage. Thankfully it was mostly rear damage so I am going to clean up the LT and put it on my truck after Moab. I think Aaron is getting out of the truck game and picking up a WRX he was looking at before it happened.

    Wow...

    A WRX? Fuck that noise. They look cool and go fast but they are a dime a dozen out here in Phoenix. I was more of a fan of the Evo 7 personally, but same concept.

    PM inbound..

    Hahahaha LMFAO.... you have yet to grasp that everything in this build thread is poop unless we are talking tech in which case it's great info... truck is fine, owner is still questionable at best.
