    Which coilover did you go with? Also, I WANT THOSE BEDSIDE DECALS. they look awesome. ALSO, I should change my LBJs as well but I just had an alignment a month ago...I think I'll wait till I get new UCAs and then do eh ball joints/alignment then.

    Get with Raymond (Ghost) pretty sure he has my final bedside design saved.

    I just scored Eric's (Relentless Fabrication) Fox FTS 2100 2.0 body coilover with brand new Eibach coils and a fresh rebuild!

    The LBJ shouldn't change alignment. But if they are really bad before we replace them and are aligned on the really bad out of spec ball joint, then we might need an alignment. Hope not though.

    How bad are your alignment specs without the UCAs? I'm worried I might have to grab some UCA's too. :eek: But I have brand new OEM UBJ's sitting in my room. What to do? :goingcrazy:

    They aren't terrible. I wander over the road a lot. Especially in cross winds. UCAs should help with that.

    Is wandering from the lift and RTT? You are carrying more weight a lot higher than I am currently. But if you have been wandering for a while now.. Idk haha. Either way I am sure UCAs would be better. Just not sure how much better.

    if you were missing a exhaust manifold bolt you prob need to replace the gasket and tighten them all back down.
    might help get a lil power back too.

    Good call, also the bolt I put in has worked itself loose, I can hear it again :eek:
    I guess not being able to really torque the bolt without it stripping would be why the original bolt fell out! A nut and some washers should work huh? Don't have money for headers at the moment.

    It is already stripped. I can't get it tight, just spins. I will figure it out this weekend. The bolt I am talking about isn't into the block though, just from the exhaust manifold to the exhaust piping.

    Well yeah it's due to the lift. Nothing to do with the tent though. It's always done it but the lift made it worse. During my last alignment a month ago the shop said the LBJs were good. But who knows. He said I wander because he couldn't get the alignment perfect due to the lift. UCAs should help that a lot.

    Update!

    New OEM LBJs installed. Looks like I will need a new outer tie rod soon, passenger side. Maybe I will do that when I get the coilovers on... :D
