If you purchased a complete Belltech kit it will have the proper shorter bumpstops. They are a foam/rubber bumper that prevents your suspension from bottoming out. Which you will this low.
And if you don't have the complete kit get it. You have to have to use proper lowering/shorter shocks.
If you want to go low don't even waste time with a 1/4 coil here 1/2 there. Do 3/4 coil in the front and a full coil in the rear. It will end up a 3"/5" drop instead of a 2"/4".
The only cons are a little rougher ride and next to no suspension travel. Those are minor minor CON's considering the...
Yep. Mine looks the same. The colder it is the faster it fills up. And freezes. Keep a close eye on it. A full frozen catch can is definitely not good..!
The angle of the link bars can cause issues due to the location of instant center. Ideally you want your lower bars to be as close to parallel to the ground as possible. When I say ideally I mean good enough for our low horsepower street trucks. Race cars with 4 links are a whole other animal...
Remove the coil packs. And spray some brake cleaner down the cavity before removing the plugs. Than take a rag to partially cover the cavity and use compressed air to blow all the crap out of there. Then remove the plugs and carry on. It always seems that crud ends up down there and you...
I'll be the judge of that on this trip. I average 20-22mpg on the highway... We shall see what happens. I think I'll run the mileage booster on the way there. And my 93hemifever tune home.
And yes. Pump up your tires and keep those rev's as low as you can.
Go with a CAI and a Diablosport tuner on the "Mileage Booster" tune. I've had good luck in the past with them on my '09 Silverado. In a few weeks I'll be testing that tune on my 2000km round trip back to Sask with my new 2013 Ram. Lots of highway KM is where the "Mileage Booster" will shine...
Aggressive compounds for removing swirls is a huge NO NO..! Compounds are for an actual cut and polish which is wet sanding and polishing. And yes. General store products such as Mother's and Meguiars are fillers and will not last after a few washes. I could go on and on. At our shop it takes...
Maybe on your high mileage hemi might have piston wear issues, etc. But new ones the tick is normal. It all has to do with the MDS setup being that it's all hydraulic pressure related. It is not metal on metal interference friction noises. A better oil doesn't necessarily make it go away. It has...
Do people actually think the "Tick" is a bad thing like the motor is going to fail..? Because it IS normal and NOT a bad thing... Or is it more of an annoyance to you guys..?
Hello. Read 450HP's last post. It was Monday the 25th. Saying he would have news that evening. That's a far cry from Thursday the 28th...
But I know how the Americans love to soak their holidays for all they're worth. Like really... A 4 day weekend 3 weeks before your week long...

Too many projects soaking up your funds sounds like it... And I didn't even spend 25k on my truck.
My point is everyone acts like we're being ripped off. Having done many exhaust systems and TIG work and custom design and fab work I know how much work they take and APPRECIATE it. Those...
If you like doing things half assed go right ahead. If you can save up $1000 you can save $1500 and do it right. Really tired of people wanting something for nothing on here..! If you can build them cheaper and turn a better profit then go for it.
Guys who spend $40,000 plus on a truck who...
It's not just that they are stainless. They are a much better design than all the cheapie's like Hooker and Pacesetter and OBX. They use heavy hand ported machined flanges. They have proven merge collectors that are worth power. And they're professionally hand made and TIG welded.
You get what...
