    the front is way better with the softer springs, rear end is great too, but i have to play around with the compression tubes again. need to get longer straps for the rear too, get almost 3" more down travel with the 50T

    still need to get the skid on, i picked it up today, just ran out of time...

    also found out my steering rack is starting to shit out...

    Could you replace the bushings with the TC replacements, might tighten up the steering a bit?

    i'll check the oil tomorrow, but if it's low, it can't be that low cuz it's not leaking...

    the steering has pretty much always felt shitty to me since i did front LT... the stock rack just can't take the extra stress
