    After propping a pry bar in to hold the pedal I was able to pop both sides and had it spitting fresh, air free fluid in a few seconds. The lines were a bitch up under the bed but the rest was too easy.

    Yeah that part sucks no matter how you slice it. After doing a few I've learned some tips and tricks, but it still takes me like 45-60 min.

    Yeah I'm not sure how long that part took. Especially since I was doing shocks and bump stop extensions at the same time. And since I was down there I retorqued all my u-bolts. Doing all that took me about 3 hours pulling it into the garage to torquing wheels back on

    Johnson valley or King of the Hammers is the first stop unless I can squeeze a shake down run in before then.

    I've still got a lot of prep to be ready for the race.
