    So what do some people normally get in their V6 WHEN they make a trip up to Flag? Do you make it there and back on one tank? How fast do you go?

    Thanks!

    Thank you sir. What mileage did you get last time you drove to Flag? Make it there and back on a tank?

    Hadn't thought of a/c was thinking a heavy duty fan,

    and yes I'm getting rid of the current workbench and thinking about designing a new one...

    Interested.. what you have in mind?


    and one thing I need to do for sure is add more outlets,
    I only have one for plugging things in :(

    Need a couple for lighting on the ceiling, and a couple for where I put the new work bench,

    Also thinking of adding a tv, some places to sit.. Idk

    ok guys....
    Just went to the dealership to have the Throttle Positioning Sensor I bought installed since i stripped the screws... but they said it was the wrong part and the only way to get a legit TPS is to order an entire new throttle body for $1175 so right then and there I called bullshit and left.

    My engine is still hesitating on occasion but not as much as before. My gas mileage has significantly decreased though. I'm getting 12.5 MPG and the engine just feels heavy. I've been keeping a pretty light foot so I feel like there's something else causing the low MPG's. I am running 285/75/16 tires but I have had a 17 MPG fill up with them on before.

    Any suggestions or recommendations for a shop to get the truck looked at?

    I have a whole garage full of REALLY nice cabinets in mine that i am looking to sell. They are really heavy duty with 1" shelf's. I have enough for two full walls. One set is 16" deep, and the other set is 24" deep, With matching wall hanging cabinets. I have a nice stainless steel sink sunk into the very end of one set that i tapped water from my hose bib. if you or anyone is interested let me know. I can take pics or you can check them out. You can ask OuTkAsT or Moose how they look. They are less than 5 months old. I installed them, then shit happened and i moved out, and am renting the house to my Ex...

    for me, pretty sure its lowest. 0. the number indicates preload, and as the eibachs are not longer then stock, their simply stronger, you dont want to change preload at all.

    well, again, i dunno about the 2nd gen. but, for my firstie, they are rated for 3 inches at stock preload. Initially they are a little more, but settle in a few weeks. Mine did, i just wish my expos would settle faster. But im lazy and haven't added weight lol

    but like i mentioned, the the springs are not longer. simply stronger.

    2011-08-17_14-41-08_756.jpg

    above are my old springs, vs new ebachs. granted the stockers had a very, very, very, very, very, very hard life. and a block lift of atleast an inch. new stockers are the same length though :D i went from about three inches of travel, with no real reboung, to those. they seriously ride like freaking butter. the expos are my only complaint.

    meh, get it aligned and i havent had any issues.

    but according to this only like 1.6" lift???? looks like same springs as the first gens though, this concludes that the second gens weigh more? what about omes? i wish i could help more, im just not to up on my 2nd gens, im learning the firsts like the backside of my hand lol
