    Not enough to have a build thread.
    Nor sure. And ya, I'll upgrade the controller when/if it fails to a digital one. Or if I deem it necessary lol

    Starting to gather parts for the SAS on my 2012 :) got a Ford super duty axle so far so I may be posting later on looking for some other parts. It's going to be a slow process getting it all together and assembled lol

    I recommend this therm.
    And a smoker tube for long smokes and extra smoky flavor.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    Yeah I'm really glad I checked with you. I think they are going to work out nicely, thanks again!

    I keep reminding myself to measure before I install today so I can keep track of the difference. I forgot to measure before leaving the stock config so I'm not sure exactly sure, but I think I'm around 2" of lift.

    I wondered about the boots when I assembled the coilovers. At least the rears I can still remove easily if I decide to. That said, neither boot sits open side up like a cup so I should be fine leaving them on right?

    I saw firsthand what collects in there at the shop and when I cut them off. The corrosion that was left behind was all I needed to know.

    How can you flip the rears when the ends are different?

    You could always do custom mounts as well. But if I'm doing that lm going to spend more then the 100 I spent on shocks that have got through a ton of shit on the super cheap.
    Weird you have corrosion. But that could be anything. I just givin my personal experience with how well these cheap ass shocks have held up. $ 100 rear Billy's for the win.
    Dont get me wrong there coming off soon. They have served there time. But with LT up front there the weakest link now.
