    I am going to guess your sway bar bushings. But tighten everything relating to suspension/brakes. Could apply a light film of Super Lube on rubber parts. Or spray some teflon spray on the BJs

    I generally do this every time I wash the truck. Get the power washer to get all the dirt out, and then hit them with teflon spray/liquid

    I just hit all the zerks in Nov. But I don't make the physics rules haha. If it's time again, so be it. Just wish it wasn't 15* out.

    I need fingerless mittens.

    Do you get any more height with LT or just more travel?

    I don't mind the cold. Just not a fan of touching metal with my bare hands in it.


    The best part of the cold is that when it's really bad, you have the woods to yourself for camping. Haha. David you need to test out the snow durabiltdu of that new tent since you have your truck back. I heard NH has some places to see

    Reports on fb group are heavy snow, not so great. But can use mono-pod from camera to help keep roof up.

    I doubt the truck will be fully done before winter ends. Hopeful, but want warm to come back before I do more things. I put my bedslide on when I got home last night. It was 15* . No one wanted to help me with front bumper

    You can def achieve the same amount of height. I just played with mine enough that it still feels nice to drive at that height. @snowsk8air2 has his probably closer to your height so I don't think you are sacrificing depending on how you set it up.

    You can get whatever ride height you want with LT. All about adjusting spring rates and preload to what you want.
