    I used a Lexus valve...I think it's what was specified in the sticky mods thread. Looks the same but flows both ways.

    Got an alignment. Turns out the alignment tabs on the LCA's are seized up, so that's pretty cool... At least the camber is still within proper spec. Guess it's time for long travel sooner than later!

    I thought they looked a little like old cheap Monroe's before hand so that's why I painted them

    washed it and took it to the dealer for an alignment. they couldn't get the caster numbers i wanted but did the best they could without sacrificing the rest of the alignment. i think 1.6 on the left and 1.2 on the rt. it drives great and nu rubing anywhere so seems good to me

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Greased the u-joints; glad I did. Rear joint gave a little bubble gum pop as a teeny bit of air was expelled. Feels good now and thanks TW!

    Put on my high clearance rear bumper, most of the clearance gain is from losing the hitch, but clearance is clearance...

    Probably gained 6 inches at the back end, not sure about my new departure angle yet.

    Did you paint the center caps or did you buy them? I have been looking for a set for a while.

    Yup. I had cut out holes in the stock bumper and flush mounted the pods. My plan was to put some tapped holes into the tube bumper and mount the pods between the bars with the flanges on the outside, but it turned out they wouldn't fit that way. I didn't want to leave the wires hanging and the switch useless, so the zip ties will hold until I figure a way to either replace the pods with some kind of single row units that'll fit the space better or else fabricate some real brackets to hold those pods (or maybe just bedliner over the zip ties so they're not as visible...)
