I apologize if this is already on here somewhere but was interested in Mods that don't break the bank, quick and easy. Lets see them.

Anyone who gets the tailgate assist. Save yourself the headache. Ditch the upper ball mount washer they give you and get one 3/8" x 1-1/2" fender washer (Home Depot sku 0000-590-720 $0.25). Use that instead. If not the upper shock end will contact your tailgate and make it rub. Then the cable will not tuck in properly and stick out through the gate when closed. It now works perfectly... Nice add-on... Thanks for the suggestion.

What is the tmr mod

Welcome, another 03! the TMR is "Torque Management Request" on the 03 the TCM is separate from the PCM and this wire can be cut eliminating torque management.

Where do you find those for 80 bucks? I've only found them for 160 the set.

Two questions, what is and what does the power wire do?
