    Lifting the truck and not adjusting the prop valve should give you less brake, not more

    Maybe the parking brake cable is caught or too tight now? Lift the rear wheels off the ground and put in neutral and see if the rear wheels spin by hand

    Adding shackle length will effect ride height which will effect the BPV but that is it. And would be a small impact, not a dramatic one.

    I can never remember which way that goes.

    That was the other thing that occurred to me after I posted. E-brake cable binding.

    Just think "more weight = more brake", so....

    lowering/more weight = more brake
    lifting/less weight = less brake

    I'd say about 2", depends on where ya measure( :evil: ) but you can also position the rack where ya want it too. So it varies from build to build

    don't have an OBD, Ill find out this weekend when I get it inspected again. Im hoping its just the MAF or something and not one of the 2 O2 sensors because I just replaced the upstream and if the downstream is tripped then Ill know my cat is toast

    I had a second vehicle I intended on installing it in but the vehicle is no longer in my possession.
