    loosen and retorque your upper and lower control arms with the truck at ride height. there could be preload on the bushings that are resisting the height increase that the trim packers are trying to achieve.

    Loosen the main UCA bolt, right? Replacing the bushings is on my to do list so we'll see what that does for me.

    This is what I have on my rig. With 600#ers I had mean body roll once the bumper and winch were added. The 700's took most of that away.

    Regardless of what King says, or other assclowns on this thread, you can NOT adjusted them while on the truck without 6 months of prior steroid use. Way too much pressure...

    I have 5/16ths pre-load on the right, and 1/2" on the left. But also take into account I have two batteries.

    Yes. They. Do! But the nice thing is that once they're done, they're done...

    it's not only a strength issue, but a space issue.

    until you ad the next heavy item to your front end :bananadead:

    You're right on the space issue. Also where the allen bolt for the collar happens to to be.

    I think I'm done adding heavy things to the front end. Well, I'm done until I do a SAS, but then the coil overs won't matter!;)

    I was skimming through the last few days of BS and must've missed his specifics of his question.

    Rumor has it that steroids are bad for the gentleman sausage though. Tall frozen mugs of beer are good for the soul as well.... without the rage and other pesky side effects.

    Prepping for it.... start to tomorrow. I don't keep up with the general shenanigans except during my days off. So when I get around to attempting to catch up, due to the overwhelming volume, I tend to speed skim and miss stuff.

    I don't think anything is truly "missed" in this thread.

    Steroids won't do anything to your junk unless they're impure or taken improperly. Basically, balls recede because the body stops making natural testosterone due to the influx of all the excess testosterone/AAS. I'd be more worried about gynaecomastia than anything. Don't want to look like Robert Palmer.

    Eh. I never liked the pre-night shift prep, but it beat the hell out of going to work feeling drugged due to the change in sleep pattern.

    As for beer, I'm drinking some Chainbreaker White IPA. Gotta say, its good stuff :thumbsup:.

    TRUTH.
    Fascinating. Probably the most educational statement in this thread..... at least recently. To me anyways.
    You hit that nail on the head. My recipe is lots of caffeine with dinner and catching up on shows I missed while working. And thank the 8 pound 6 once Lord baby Jesus for a game of thrones marathon today.
    My spider sense tells me there may be an opportunity for dead animals cooked over open flames and beer tasting the future.

    I watched an episode of GOT once. A lot of people were getting cleavered to death. Still, I couldn't get into it. Instead, I decided to watch the full series of Breaking Bad. Just started Season Three and for the life of me I cannot understand why I didn't watch the series sooner.

    Come on with the dead animal eating and beer deliciousness savoring. Once I get this cast off in T-minus 10 days I'll be a bit more mobile. I should be able to drive at least.

    One way of keeping the body to produce some natural test (and thus marginally minimizing the testicular recession) is to take a SERM like Clomid. There are other benefits to this as well, like controlling the gyno, but there are drawbacks as well. Clomid is one of the most widely prescribed fertility drugs, so think about that before having carnal relations with a fertile woman.

    Well Dale, with GOT, I didn't start watching until the third season was on tv and was able to start with episode one and go non-stop through the third season finale. It's a great show in my opinion, but I'm not sure I would've been hooked as early if I had to watch it one episode per week. Breaking bad is high on my list of shows to start watching.

    We'll have to see what can be put together for dead animal eating and beer deliciousness savoring.

    That's the one beneficial thing to skipping an entire TV series: watching all the episodes non stop and commercial free. I'm an enthusiastic fan of Banshee and Ray Donovan and this waiting for the new season routine sucks.
