    Yeah I know, I'm just telling myself I don't need to stow them away like a squirrel hiding nuts on the off chance I get a deal on coilovers with a lower spring rate.
    I got too much on shelves in my garage as is. I still haven't put on the gusseted spindles I bought from @ovrlndkull or the sliders that have laid unfinished in my garage for 2 years. :anonymous:

    I want to clean them up before I put them on, they are greasy af and it's easier to tell when something goes wrong with clean parts. Might even paint em :rofl:

    I don’t like you. Other than your carpets being extra clean, I fail to see any other positive in you.

    Shoutout to @AccuTune Offroad and this tech article.

    https://accutuneoffroad.com/which-fitting-can-i-adjust/

    I swapped to the 600 lb coils today and wanted as little preload on them as I could get. This meant I had to adjust the JIC fitting on one of them to clock it outboard maybe 1/4”. Slowly loosened it while simultaneously turning the fitting and then quickly tightened it back up. No loss in pressure or oil.


    As far as the new coils, my ride height didn’t change since I went from a 700 lb 16” to a 600 lb 18” long coil. I may drop spring rate even lower, down to 550 or 500. That’ll put me where I want ride height wise and articulate off-road even easier.

    Talking to myself in here. Went ahead and ordered some 18” x 500 lb coils from accutune. That should drop the front end down to where I was pre LT and articulate even easier.

    I definitely don’t take as many as you. I know you document the hell out of everything and have an absurd amount of pics. It comes in handy though.
