    Ya cable was routed behind the shock, putting pressure on the cable.
    Don't worry about the rust. A lot of that is just dirt honestly. All that rusted crap is getting replaced and cleaned/treated.

    Did you bring it as a vote before the commitee of elders? I'd back that & also call DC's sequoia trucks & 2wd's cars.

    I tow 7-8000# campers with my spacers on. For the last 14 years with both trucks. Still haven’t burst into flames or created any tire missles.

    Man, aftermarket lower ball joints and no-name wheel spacers. I don't know how to pronounce your username but I want to be as brave as you someday.

    I know, both could fail at any minute. The wheel spacers have failed to fail for the last 18 or so years. The LBJs are just waiting for the right time to pounce
