    So what, are you 5-lugger's opinions on exhaust systems?

    Personally I like running stock for my DD with the header but now it's time to go with something that makes a better sound.

    Has anyone ever cracked their rear differential by over tightening the fill plug?
    I just was under my truck today with a pair of pliers tightening random bolts and might have overtightened the fill plug bolt on the rear differential. Is it even possible to strip out that big thing with a small set of pliers? How would I know?
    Thanks!!

    Hey guys, So I have a 2011 5 lug double cab...I tired to put fatbobs on it but the UCA was hitting the coil before full droop. I think the difference is only between the double cabs and the other versions. does anyone have any old coilovers from a Ac or Reg cab? Any other suggestions are great!

    most likely since you have a dc it has bigger higher rate springs meaning if you get stock springs from an ac your likely to lose a bit of ride height. how bad does it hit?

    That was my best guess. you really have to try and pop it to get it to full droop. Thanks man:cool:

    I am a long time creeper..I just haven't had a chance to be as active as I would like. I didn't get a chance to, but I had to use a pry bar to get it to full droop. :eek:
