    Start with 2, and if you need more or less go to like 3 or 1, sometimes 6 is good. I used to run 9 but then I switch to 11. My buddy runs a 6 but goes back and forth between a 5 and 8.

    I was careful to buy seats with dual slots, I dont think you are supposed to run dual harnesses through a single slot, they make Y harnesses for those. But honestly not a fan of my seats after a few years in them. Looking at switching to some Corbeau's

    i have harnesses in my sr1 rhino with seats that have one slot in the center. but the seat has loops on the outside of the headrest that the harnesses go through and holds them there..... not too much of a fan but it was the only way i could go with having a narrow seat.

    I ran both mine through the center slot...seems like I have more side to side movement. My seats are super comfy and fit good so I don't wanna get new ones right now

    Put 10comp/08 reb on the coilovers and try around 15/10 on the bypasses. That's a guess since you didn't post any specs on what this is going, what kind of driving, how fat you are, how many bro hos will be in the front seat...

    Once you get to 4 bro hoes then you need bypasses, or is it once you get bypasses you have 4 bro hoes in the back, I'm not sure. I would say go with a 6 and call it a day

    Do the number of tubes on each shock determine the mount f bro hoes? Or is it tubes in total on the truck?

    If you have to ask, then no amount of tubes will help.

    Total tubes for the bro hoes, the tubes on each shock attracts the bros, its very tricky and have to be careful
