    Rolled ot out and did the radiator fan on a switch till Tuesday when I'm back at work...then I'll write up the sending unit and relay to a thermal switch.
    Did a 40 mile drive to run it and see how it handles....all good 80 down the freeway steady and controlled....
    Will be doing wheel spacers in rear...its 5" over in front....

    Sweet build so far man! Where'd you find that giant clamp for the Co2 tank mount? Looks like it works really well!

    Well 3 days with hydro assist and figured out where I'm getting air in system....
    The trail gear ram is leaking on the shaft at seals....3 days old and its puddling a little here and there...explains then constant need to burp because of air causing pump wine...

    Yes my ram is horizontal with tie rod there's no side loading...

    It felt like stock just a smidge better but still having turn issues...noticed it would feel great then like crap..
    So I'll call trail gear tomorrow and get a replacement ram....ehhhhh shit happens not everything cant be perfect therefore there's warranty...lol
    So no love lost at this moment....
