    About 2-3 MPG increase is what I'm seeing. They are still big, heavy and e-rated, however. I've not been through a tank of gas yet however.

    I have the exact same kit on my truck, except I have Freedom Offroad UCAs.
    My LF corner is down a bit compared to the RF. I'm hoping with some more time and maybe some shims, I can level the front. (L to R)

    Today I hit a hidden wall in a parking lot. Turned out of a parking spot and didn’t notice the 2 1/2’ high wall which had clearly been hit Numerous times. It hurts. Specially since I’ve had metal sitting in the garage for sliders for a few months now.

    Oh man, that sucks. The door skin and step bar can be replaced. I'm not sure how much work it'll take to fix the door sill.

    Seems it may not be too bad. The bottom is lined up well and I see no gaps…

    I did the same once driving my company truck only a lot worse. Passenger side also. It’s hard to avoid something you can’t damn well see.

    Only thing I've run high pressure valves on was our prototype airbag setup. I don't recall the lbs for the regular, but it seemed like it was pretty high. The e rated I ran were just regular rubber stems.

    Standard stems usually are fine to 60psi. I just use broke TPMS sensor stems for most of my cars… they hold a lot of pressure and they’re free for me because lubetechs break sensors a lot

    I've done 80psi w shraders on my bicycle. Granted not at 80mph. I shoulda saved my 4 steel wheel tpms stems but the guy said removing them destroys them or something? I wasn't really buying that, but I do have my TMPS' ready to rock on my sr5 wheels.

    Thinking I may stay 16" wheel-wise after all, which means no giant tires. Maybe that's OK though, how much height do I really need?

    Don't ask the guy who either bought a used truck or just moved in around the corner. I'm sure he thinks his truck is awesome. It's a suburban or something that may be on 35's. I'm guessing it's a bracket lift because their is a 12" spacer thing up front with some logo cut into it. Stupid ass truck, embarrassing really.

    I always tell the dealership salesmen they can have it for $100k when they try to get me to sell my 06 :laugh: they get the hint after that ... Til the next time I'm there.
    Why would I sell the best truck I've ever owned? And after modding the hell out of it, spending countless dollars and hours working on it and making memories with it
