    Do the cooler for sure! It was super overcast this weekend and my tranny was over 200 most of the time.

    Also I rubbed the shit out of my tires on the firewall lol

    You are 100%right, barely any preload at all.

    Installing it today hopefully! :thumbsup:

    I rub my cab mount big time, so I started there. Cut them back more and boxed them yesterday. Finishing them now.

    I'm installing a little larger bump spacer to try to keep this from happening again. Once I get the hardware for that (no one in town sells a M10 x 1.25 SHCS so I had to order from McMaster) I'll cycle it and find out where else it's rubbing. Front/upper fender wall will need some massaging for sure from the looks of it.

    Having 100% of your turning radius at full bump is overrated, right? :rolleyes:

    I already have 3/4" spacers. The picture is deceiving though, that space is a little over an inch. But yeah, I'm keeping this in mind as I still might.

    I was supposed to get a complete flush this Tuesday but since my coilover was busted, and the parts didn't come in until yesterday, I had to cancel. Getting it done next week though. :thumbsup:

    So does that mean you're running low??

    Did you use the same cooler as linked a few pages back?

    No, I filled the cooler + lines to compensate for the extra volume.

    Yeah, same cooler that @inv3ctiv3 linked.

    No welding, just bending AL and drilling a couple holes.
