    Keep me posted.

    You should come to Everett's on the weekend of the 3rd and we'll try to short out your ECU and things lol. Provided it's not blowing 20mph and sub-30°. Can't work with my hands too long on wiring wearing gloves when it's that cold

    I have my own wiring madness, too.

    My Wolo keeps breaking the positive wire right at the spade connector. 3rd time so far. Really irritating! @mwc273 @Bluegrass Taco @beertimecontinuum this grasshoppa is seeking guidance to my err

    Also, something in my garage keeps tripping its breaker where it's fed from the house panel, but none trip in the garage sub-panel :confused:. I'm going to unplug everything that's in there today and try again. It's on a 30 amp circuit to the garage from house. I've had 2 work lights burning (one CFL and one old as dirt 'anti-shatter' metal cage lights hijacked from the old man years ago), my 33gal Craftsman compressor (plugged into its very own 30 amp circuit in said garage), 4 fluorescent shop lights, a radio, drill batteries charging, box fan, and the giant buzzing monster of a dusk-to-dawn light, all running at once and never had an issue before we got frozen.

    Yay being a homeower!

    So this is sorta gay, but a girl I work with got a new machine to make decals, vinyl, etc with. She'll probably be making my shirts for the next meet I put together, but she's going to hook me up with my little film business logo that I have. She's making them like 3"x 3" and one big enough to put on my drone when filming. Would anyone want 1 to throw on their cooler/storage bin or whatever you throw stickers on? Obviously I wouldn't charge for one, but just something I thought could go around in case someone asked what it was or needed something filmed then someone could be like yeah he films junk.

    I'm wanting to get some of my lift back since my leafs and coils have sagged over the years, so on top of ordering some new leaf springs I'm trying to decide on what I want up front. I have 5100 all the way around with eibach cools on the front. Think I should just go ahead and buy a new shocks or just go with a different coil? Keep in mind I would love to drop $1,500 on a set of fox or Kings however I just don't think that's reasonable

    Not sure how much you want to spend but I got a great deal on my Icon stuff. Bought the fronts through a group buy and the rears through ORW. He offered to price match the group buy if I didn't want to wait or if it fell through. Some people aren't huge fans of Icon due to issues but it didn't deter me any. I've had them for a year so far and love the ride. Very, very happy with my purchase. It doesn't matter who you go with in our neck of the woods. No one around here services or sells high end shocks so your gonna have to rebuild them yourself or pay out the ass to ship them out west. When/if the day comes that I need to rebuild or repair mine I will just do it myself. It doesn't look difficult at all.

    Anything over 50k miles and you'll see improved ride with New shocks. Go with longer coils rather than overloading stock coils.

    *Also, if you want to drive or ride in my truck to see if you'd like the ride or performance let me know and we can meet up. I know I wished I'd had that opportunity before I bought my stuff.

    OME coils with "X" following size (ie. 885X) will be sag resistant.
