    Adding that much to the price, over half ffs, gives me the impression they were asking you to take it somewhere else.

    Kind of like when I shop for insurance there is always one or two companies that are 5x as much as everyone else. They just don't want my business and price it accordingly.

    You need to see if your current unit can handle more CFM before you add, it will have to work a little harder with adding more duct work also you will feel a difference in the rest of the house because it's not doing what it was designed for.

    Think of having only one vent on in your truck how much air comes out then opening the other 3, huge loss at the first vent. You will probably be fine but just something to think about

    Maybe, but I initially said no when they tried to talk me into it but changed my mind while I was waiting, after seeing some of the insanely high quotes people have posted here on TW. That and they were pretty slow and said it wouldn't take much longer than the oil change. And they've been pretty cool in the past--scheduled a free tech consult to look at some frame bolts that were damaged even though it wasn't anything they would be repairing.

    Said I would be happy to remove them myself and he said "well, it's more getting them back on and lined up". So maybe you're right. That or they just require a master tech to line up skids..

    But will you also check the installation of the floor mats?

    That does seem pretty ridiculous. Loosen 2 bolts, take 2 out and slide it back.
    Replacing the fluid in the transfer case and diffs is really easy, I always make sure I've got new crush washers for any drain, fill, and check/level bolts.
    Draining part of the tranny was a bit more on the difficult side.

    Anyone have the Tbar adjuster for king coilovers they'd be willing to lend out this weekend?
    I did a thing.

    I'm going to set the preload as close as I can to where I think it should be before install with a spanner but it seems once they're on, only way to really adjust is with their tool.

    Use a 5/32” punch. It’s longer so better leverage anyway. Or it might be 5/16”. Your eyes should tell you.

    Edit: my vote is on 5/16”. Quote me on it.

    Haha, spent all my money already. Besides I just got a softopper not that long ago and @In4aride built me a custom bedrack to go over it.
