    Build thread in sig... 4-link long travel
    So you got me curious....
    I just drained and filled my bump stops and coilovers 3 times. Checked with a no loss gauge after disconnecting the filler each time. Largest difference I got between the two was about 5psi. Hard to be super accurate when the lines are in 10 psi increments, but I'd be happy enough with that to trust the regulator guage.

    Didn’t realize it was getting out like that! Cool!

    I may or may not have a job that arrived today from one of the most iconic auto mags on the planet too!

    Pretty stoked with the direction things are heading!

    Couldn’t dream of being that cool. It has the same initials as I do. Kinda sucks I can’t say much of anything until it’s released.

    I finally got bigger tires 2020 Long Travel Tacoma 1997 MAGNUM
    Long story short, I'm cutting out my inner fender to fit some bigger to tires.

    I got one side already cut out done, but I can't figure how the hell the fuse box unbolts from the inner fender.

    I've unbolted all the visible bolts, but it's just not moving

    Anyone have an idea? I know I'm just retarded but someone please help out. Thanks

    The wires are pretty stiff, you have to undo a lot of the actual wire clips a ways back and I strapped it up to the hood with a bunch of bungee cords when I did mine

    Overall weight and distribution of said weight is so dang important. Even for our little 150whp trucks. It’s such an impactful thing that the masses overlook consistently.
