    Hey guys on the power steering lines that run into the rack how do you tighten up the coupling into the rack? Second question, do the brake lines run under the leaf springs ? And on the E brake line there is a bracket that has 2 large holes and was wondering where that went

    I agree.
    All I know is I changed the TB at 80k along with WP and plugs and one coil pack. Drove it to 301,000 miles when the frame broke. I would still drive it it wasn't for that frame. Every tank of gas was calculated. winter was around 16, summer 18. It never varied.

    The present rig is coming up to its 90k mile point. I'll do the same.

    Yea can do that. Hacksaw im sure will work. Just take time and be a PITA. Wonder if they will stay in place like that or rotate. I sucked mine do super hard and due to the angle the bolt cut threads into the shims. Used a wrench to extend the allen key and torque it down hard. No issues so far.

    ouch..i can hear your ball joints and CV boots screaming from here.
