Nope, it stayed on.

 

Nah, you want a Knuter valve. Much better brand. Definitely go ask for that at the parts store.

 

I have a SOG Trident in my pocket right now! It's an okay knife for the money.

 

I have a feeling you're setting me up for a good laugh at my expense...

 

x2. Make sure you ask for exhaust bearings and halogen fluid while you're at it...

 

I'd never do that.
They keep the Knuter valves right on the shelf, usually right between the water pump for a '66 Beetle and the timing belts for a Mazda RX-8

Those are usually on the next shelf up.

 

You guys are killing me man!

 

I was going to have him search for the metric Crescent wrench... Now he'll be on to me!

 

My edc is an sog flash II with partially serrated blade. I've had it for almost 7 years, and it's been great. I beat the shit out of it, use the handle to open bottles, etc...

For the money not sure there's a better knife

 

Or a left handed one. Those are super handy!

 

Just picked up this Gerber:

Gerber Gear Mini Covert FAST Pocket Knife - 2.9" Clip Folding Knife - Tactical Gear and Equipment - Black

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PTGONW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 To replace my Buck that I've had for years because I thought I'd lost it, (of course I found it the day after the gerber arrived ) but so far it's a nice knife for the $$. Time will tell, though.

 

I liked my trident until the clip loosened and then broke. I had a Benchmade Adamas that I edc'd for a while until it grew legs and walked away.

 

LOL

 

Ok boys, so help me pick out the least expensive way to meet my lift "needs". 2013 DCSB 6 spd.

1. Purely cosmetic. I don't off road. I don't intend to either. I do drive down a gravel driveway to get to the fish & game land.
2. @jc11taco89 has a set of 2011 AC TSB springs with an AAL and rear 5100's that I'll be using for the rear.
3. Truck has an Iron Cross rear bumper, SOS sliders, and an ARB front bumper (without a winch).
4. Current hub to fender measurements are 19 1/2" front, 21 1/2" rear.
5. I want to keep 1" of rake but not more.
6. I'd like to keep the ride smooth, similar to stock.
7. From time to time, I will put a bit of weight in the bed. Ideally, it would be nice to haul 500 - 750lbs without being on the bump stops! I'm hoping the AAL will help a little.
8. Truck has only 28K on it...
9. Cost... I'm cheap.

 

Icon Stage IV with custom leafs, definitely.

 

Your basic 5100 lift with eibach coils and a progressive all or dakars would work

 

Me.

 

I would go with the front 5100's with the eibach coils or the OME equivalent, if you want a little more bang for your buck check out the 6112's I believe @DrFunker has them if you wanted a first-hand experience, or go with what I plan to replace my 5100's with in the next few months thee ICON 2.5 Ext travel NON-resi coilovers, or the KING equivalent if I can find a deal.
