Driveshaft spacer
Okay. My ProComp lift came with a front spacer but not for the rear. When I crawl under the truck, it looks like the yoke has moved out of the t-case about an inch or two. Im trying to figure if thats safe or if I need to find a spacer for the rear driveshaft. Thanks for your input fellas.- brandon.colt

When I put the truck in drive and hold the breaks (power breaking), the rev the engine, starting around 1200rpm there is a faint grinding noise. I can't tell if its coming from the trans or transfer case. Anyone have any similar situations or knowledge on the matter? Thanks 2012 1500...- brandon.colt

Best $300 mod
He was messing with you, the catch can does not add any hp. It is a good mod for keeping oil out of your filter and out of the combustion chamber though. Well worth it but you do need to empty it every 2-4k miles depending on how quickly it fills up.- brandon.colt

***Clunking in the front end after Bilstein install ..***
If the CV is binding up because of the new geometry induced by the lift, they can go to **** within 50 miles or less. I currently have a bad CV because of my lift, got new ones on the way. I have a lot of play on the inner where it goes to the diff. A little in and out play is okay (I think) but...- brandon.colt

Who's rock'n a 6" lift with 17" wheels
The issue with a quality lift and 17" wheels is the clearance between the inside of the wheel and the spindle.- brandon.colt

Can't get rear shocks out
Buy a cheap wrench, take the box end and about 1.5" of the handle; cut everything else off. Slip it onto the nut and you're good to go.- brandon.colt

Possible CV issues
Rzrman328, I've gone through you're build thread; very nice. I don't know how to upload pics, it asks for a URL. With that I have not taken picture under the truck. Jameson, The coils are set about half way through their adjustable range. That's how they arrived. Without pulling out a tape...- brandon.colt
