    I need to adjust my driver side coilover up a little, but the thing wont budge. I was wondering what can I try to get it to budge? without having to take off the coilover. thanks guys!

    Gotta ask....Did you lift the truck up and take the weight off of the wheel?

    Yes I jacked it up and took the wheels off. But for the life of me, cant get them to budge! I'll try some pb blaster, bc I just installed them a couple months ago, so they shouldnt be that seized up yet. thanks!

    Anyone else?

    I use a 1" dia. 2 foot long pipe ti give extra leverage. And a liberal application of PB Blaster. :)

    I did it!!!! PB blaster is awsome.. It took alot of strength, but I got my driver side up to a little bit under 39, and my passenger side is 38-7/8 about. So Im happy! Im kinda paranoid with things like this.:)

    I took my truck on the bumpiest and roughest road around, this road never gets repaired and is like driving in a field of ruts and holes... and my truck just floated over the bumps. I freaken love it! 5100's are awsome!:)
