    Sound, It's a lot throatier and deeper sounding and you notice the RPM's, seems the same power as it should but the sound makes it seem faster.

    You can do it for a lot less money, i think... I took all the silencers off my intake and plugged the holes. It's a lot louder now and you get a nice growl when you get on the gas. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I think that's all this tube does.

    My brother in law works there. Probably the key factor in why my older sister married him hahaha He gets employee discount. The guy didn't tell me he worked there for four months! But now he is hooking me up. Sadly only me. I already asked for the guy who owns the truck in the TW banner.

    I will probably post my old ones for sale once I get the new ones on there. Not sure yet

    Bilstein 5100's all around - Toytec/Eibach 112-620 Coils, Wheelers 5-Pack+Wheelers 2"AAL. 33x10.5x15 KM2s - Siped on Summit Racing 84-5883 rims with 3.750 BS. 4.88s. Demello HD round sliders. Home built full skids. Home built front bumper. Plasti'd badges. Energy Susp. steering rack bushings. Sway bar delete. Deck plate mod. aFe Pro-Dry. Gibson exhaust.
    Installed new steering rack bushings - total waste of time and money. my 'stock' ones were in good enough shape, should've stopped when i realized that. Instead, wasted 3 hours under the truck and $25.

    Plasti-derped my badges. I think i caked it on a bit heavy on the last coat (because it was late, bugs were out, etc.) - looks good, but not great, will probably re-do it soon.

    Painted my scrape-plates shiny black. need to drop the gas tank skid and do that too.

    You've all seen plastidipped and black plates, so unless you all realllly want pics, i'll skip it.

    nah man, you'll notice an improvement in steering when you hit the dirt. the poly urethane is much better than the crappy stock rubber

    i know they take a long time to install... at least it's a cheap part and you dont have to pay yourself for your time on the clock

    does anyone know the size of the rear diff drain and fill plug? i was fighting with it last night and lost.

    finally this morning i gotta 15/16" on it and got it off but its all rounded and messed up so im thinking about replacing it. im thinkin maybe my diff breather is plugged up cuz it was so ridiculously tight maybe there was a bit of a vacuum? does that make sense?
