    OK so first time out with LT rear and I ripped a speed sensor cable in 2.

    Would that cause the P0500 code, odometer and speedometer all to quit?

    Also when I fuelled up the gauge stayed at 1/4 for the first few miles then went to full.... is it related?

    The drive shaft was still too long so at full droop I had actually dented the shaft where the slip yoke was bottoming out.

    So is taking it back to the builder and saying, " I thought you guys articulated the suspension?" and showing them those pics not an option?

    Thats my thought. Since you can put a full fist between the shock and frame it would seem there is most certainly room to move in the upper mount even if not the lower. Maybe split the difference and you should clear tire on bump and frame on droop?

    ^This. I watched LSK do Rylee's truck and they moved the shock as close as possible with a little buffer room for lateral movement. I would take it back and ask them to do it right. Having the shocks rub like that isn't right and its not your fault for it being that way.

    they did an awesome job on my truck. @nfs257 id turn the shocks for now, but they are positioned much too far out.

    :mad: :pout:

    If its not one thing its another.

    The limit straps are both frayed/ cut where the tabs on the axle at full bump are hitting the frame.

    Not to be rude but how could American Motorsports let your truck leave the shop like that!
