    Don't worry man :) just do lots and lots of reading and searching on here. Find a setup you think you'd like or two setups. Then ask ppl who have it. You'll know what you want within a few weeks

    You can buy one from a vendor, or you can make your own super cheap out of some 1/4 in. or 3/8 in. aluminum flat stock.

    Whatever the additional height of your lift is, just makes the new set of holes the equal amount. All you need is a hack saw and drill.

    Well as I was on my way out to work on my truck I twisted my ankle pretty badly... Swelling is now almost as big as half a tennis ball. It's really not even my ankle, moreso the top of my foot....

    Changed the oil, trans fluid, and diff fluid. All Schaeffer's.
    Going to run this for 7,500 miles, then Amsoil for 10,000 miles. After that we're going to run an analysis to see which held up better.

    been paying others to do way too much for me lately so I jumped in and broke out my monster set of tools today to install my pace edwards tonneau cover (drill in style, not clamp). took about 1.5hrs from start to finish and was super enjoyable. it doesn't work PERFECTLY but it ain't bad.

    it feels really good to do something on my own. wish i had a proper garage >>>
