    Can’t he just reset the threshold with the TPMS button? Unless that’s a third GEN thing.

    What side wall height would you recommend, I’m replacing the stocks in the front with 6112s at 1.9”. I am most likely keeping stock 18”s but I will need tires soon.

    You can move up to a 275/70/18 with no problems. You could go up to a 295/70/18 tire, but you will have to run spacers to bring that tire out due to width and rubbing you UCA's. Another alternative is aftermarket rims with correct offset, then you wouldn't need spacers. Spacers will work, but I'm only running them till I can afford new rims. :cool:

    Hola. How did the rear sway affect the on-road feel?

    Exactly. Now that the tire pressures are set with a gauge, follow the process in the owners manual to set baseline pressures using the button below the steering column.

    Not sure only did some dirt road driving, and I didn’t take it off road prior to the install so I don’t have a performance reference. Love the sway bar though. It really makes a difference.

    Ok, so busy weekend. I installed a new head unit with Bluetooth, gps, Navi, 7” touch screen and a backup camera. And a Tyger roll up tonneau cover. Also added a dual usb charger, replaced all interior lights with leds and worked on the yellow headlights.EBB7CC92-8F60-41F8-9511-3F730D9DB4C3.jpg FFF4C6B2-9F1A-45A5-AC95-FD2B081DD50A.jpg
