    Question about the Desert Does It seat jackers… if only lifting the front, does that compromise the rear bolt angle to the seat bracket? I’m just thinking if you lift the front then that changes the angle of the rear bracket so does it not sit flush? Is that an issue or don’t worry about it?

    though if you go to the website they do make some shims if you want some adjustment to the rear height of your seat

    Further in the thread the OP states he leaves them inverted and installed with different or ground Allen bolts or something and it seems they were for a 1st Gen taco.

    Yeah I called Fox and they said that is not the right bolt but of course they just closed before I could order a new one.

    So I was doing the knock sensor wire harness repair (chewed wiring) and I see this on the intake. The top right port looks alot cleaner than the others. Any ideas why? Plugs, injectors, seal?
    Any suggestions appreciated.

    It’s an old fox shock similar setup to the old pre-Icon Donahue racing coilovers. The top hat is designed that way. That being said whoever had these shocks wasn’t running them on a 2nd gen.

    Here are the struts I'm using with them, I found 20lbs to work better than 10lbs. HF case has been on a couple weeks now and haven't had any issues, just had a hard thunderstorm for about 2 days and it didn't leak at all so i'm pretty content with it. I got it on sale back at the beginning of February so only $129 VS a Roam or Pelican case which would be at least double.

    I read someone talking about that in a different thread. I ordered some new hardware and we will see if I can make them fit. If not I'm running my nitro chargers for a bit longer.
