    If i did it you would have to have it painted There should be some good PDR guys around NOVA I am sure bill knows. Kinds depends on how bad it got into the body lines also

    Appreciate it. Had a buddy in the trade swing and bring the dual run capacitor I needed. Running like a top now. Will just take a bit to get the house cooled down.

    I'm not really looking to get it done, more just pull the dent out as much as I can and move on with my life. Im mostly just looking for tips or what tools to use or what methods would be best.

    Then your best option is most likely to find a basic Paintless Dent Removal kit and watch some videos on Youtube and see what you can do. We didn't do PDR work I would grind all the paint off, pull as much of the dent as I could with a stud gun, skim with filler, block sand, prime, sand, and paint. I'm not trying to be a smartass it is just the reallity of it. If you don't want to pay to have it done, which i understand, then try and learn some of the PDR skills and try your hand at it. Sorry I'm not more help there's no easy answer to this dilema.

    No I totally get it. The reason I dont want to pay is because as hard as we wheel and as many times as I've come close to this exact same thing happeneing, I know its gonna happen again. Maybe next month, maybe next year. It's just part of the game and I want to learn how to fix it myself so I dont have to pay a bunch any time it happens.

    Maybe try a suction cup dent puller and there is also those glue on pullers used with a slide hammer you can try that also.

    Oh, I get it. Keeping a pristine vehicle and wheeling don't go hand in hand. You want to keep it as nice as you can and I applaud wanting to try and learn it yourself. Keep in mind PDR works on a lot of shallow dents but if it's something more ya gotta get into the nitty gritty and at some point you just say why? I'm just likely to do it again. When you want to do a real repair the material cost and tooling, unless you have it or access to it, can ramp costs up quickly.

    I do paintless dent repair for a living. I can show you what I would do.

    Edit: I don’t fix the dents I get

    I just picked up some king 2.5, remote resis, non-adjustable, with 4k miles. I guess the guy 'tuned' the shocks by pumping more nitrogen into them. Is that a thing, and if not, what PSI should I bring them back down to?

    Also, with OME dakars medium duty in the rear, would I need extended brake lines??

    Extended brake lines would be good to do sooner than later. Or the randyfab washer method!
