    109k miles and all I’ve done is oil changes and basic maintenance. Hasn’t skipped a beat yet. :luvya:

    Yeah I need to sell it.

    I agree! I love the look on my truck. The new OME leaf packs are really nice as well. I love the pads between the leafs so you don’t have to take them apart and apply leaf liners.

    You have another inch of threads available, but since you don’t have any weight up front you should be running 10mm of preload. Eric told you this I’m sure. But you said to crank them because you don’t go OffRoad. Right?

    For reference I’m currently setting mine to 14mm on passenger, 16-17 on driver. But I have a slimline bumper, aluminum skids and a winch.


    You just have sliders, best ride quality probably would have been 12mm for you.

    He put them on while we were eating lunch. Can’t remember the guys name that was doing the install, but they took them off and did some more adjusting. They didn’t ask me about the pre-load and such. They just installed it. Eric was on the phone most of the day selling the two Mag-Turbo’s he had in now that he’s a dealer.

    I don’t do insane off-roading. I do hit trails and such, but I race Motocross and GNCC races where I’m usually parked in some crazy ass backwoods for GNCC races here in NC, TN and KY.

    Cool cool.

    Wasn’t trying to argue with you. If you’re happy with the ride (Eric said it was ok surprisingly) rock on. But if you’d like to plush it up a bit, back that preload off. If you want to maintain that ride height(hint: you don’t, you’re murdering your CVs) you could put a small spacer on the top hat. Just need the longer bolts on top.

    I wasn’t arguing either. I was just stating how everything went down. I just told them I wanted as much lift in the front that was safe. They took it from there.
