    I theoretically could when I have it back, but like I should really take care of the oil leak issues lol. I need new power steering lines too. I made my own but I don’t trust them.

    Anybody else have trouble with their DSC adjusters on Fox shocks getting stuck or just being difficult to turn?
    Can't tell if its dirt/road salt making them stick or something inside the resi and i don't want to find out the hard way

    couple small screws and you can pull the adjusters off and clean behind them. There should be some springs and detent balls behind them, so if you do pull them off, make sure you don't lose those.

    They can get tight and difficult to turn when all of the way out or in. An easy way to fix is to use an allen wrench as a leverage point in one of the three holes on the side of the High Speed knob.

    Anybody know whos truck? It was posted in “socal truck spotting” thread.
    mostly interested in the rear bedsides. They dont look real agressive although i don’t believe anyone makes less than a 4” for the long bed so im guessing its just a deceiving angle

    Im gonna try, but it's going to be close. Really what im counting on is the issues I have completely going away by then, and making sure they stay away post fix.

    Yes everything from the oem inner outwards was PRG — except I put my own offset heim in there from Rusty’s off-road or something. Normally comes with a standard heim.

    That beats trying to turn them by hand but it's difficult doing it that way even, the other side is straight up stuck except for using knipex with some cardboard on the jaws - which is more force than i feel safe applying
    But i've never had the adjuster mechanisms apart to see how they work so i'm worried i'll break something inside if i try lube and turning them a bunch of times

    I think AccuTune has a video or article on cleaning the adjusters.

    Yeah, it shouldn't require a ton of force. They get stuck but should rotate freely once broken loose. You run the risk of damaging the internals if something is wrong and you apply too much force.

    No 2” for long bed unfortunately. These might work though lol who knows. Probably look pretty funny being skinnier up front

    Many fully built prerunners and race trucks are set up that way to tuck the rear tires. I know it's atypical for multi-purpose built 2nd / 3rd gens however I think it looks weird having wider fenders lol.
