I can't believe all the comments about the paint, are people really that naive?
Yeah i think they are!! They cant get past the paint to appreciate the performance...

Wanna sell my tonneau. Its fiberglass. No clue what brand it is because it came with the truck and its gotta bed rug on it(not included), so i cant tell. Its arrival blue. Has everything. It locks and i have the key. Its in great condition. $700 obo. Its the one in my sig. Willing to drive and meet, but not across country.

Anyone got a close up of what this part actually looks like installed. Cause ive never seen one nor does it show what the actual part even looks like when purhasing it.

So i ordered my HID's about 8 days ago and my shipping # says the item just got processed and hasnt even shipped yet... Ughh. Anyone else's take this long

Awsome now i just gotta figure out why my rear end is even with my front end. My hangers and shackles are both stock. So its gotta be my shocks are bad or worn out leaf springs. Maybe drop leaf springs, but i have no clue. There's a RPN # on the leaf springs, maybe that'll tell me. Its wierd cause the passenger side RPN# on the leaf spring is 0903 and the drivers side RPN# is 0833. Shouldnt they be the same? There's also another # on them both that match. Its 15765128 on both sides. Anyone know anything about this?

The "bump stops" are actually called jounce bumpers. They are an active part of the suspension that helps the torsion bars load and unload the suspension. They usually have a small (1/8") gap or are riding on the bumpers from the factory. If you plan on lowering the front, you will need to drill some holes in them, and or cut a nub off to maintain cushioning and a quality ride. There is a write up in the how to section done by Mr P. that is a great read on this.
Really, so im freaking out for no reason thinking my suspension is jacked up in some way. Thanks alot. Thanks for the advice.

Hey MARTYW is your truck stock height in your sig? Cause mine looks like it sits exactely like yours.
-
Also if im sitting on my bumpstops like that shouldn't my front end be lower? Or does the pic of my front end not look like stock height?
-
How is your ride? I bet your torsion bars are turned down...
The ride isnt that bad, But if i crank my torsion bars back up my front end will be extremely to high. Like retarded high. Like higher than my rear end. And what should the bolts look like stock for the torsion bars. Should they be completely in, Like all the way in so no thread shows?
-
My truck sits 7" from top of tire to fender well and I am 2wd. Looks to me like your torsion bars have been cranked down
Your 7" from top of tire or top of rim? That just doesnt make any sense to me about the torsion bars. Because i wanna lower the truck 2/2 and if i do ill be metal to metal where my bump stops are suppose to be.

Need some professional suspension guy's here. Try and figure this one out. So im on a stock suspension and my front end sits right on the bump stops. Im not lowered cause you can just tell by looking at the gap in my fender. No lowering parts that i can see. I just took a measurement and i got 9" from top of rim to fender well. I got 4" from top of tire to fender well. Why in the world would my front end be sitting on the bumpstops if im not lowered? Would it be my shocks are bad? Would that cause it to sag like that? But if i was sagging like that it seems like i would have a lowered stance if im sitting on my bumpstops. Im sitting at stock height while sitting on my front bumpstops... Mind Boggling right?

Yeah i meant for a vacuum gauge. Not a vacuum/boost gauge.
-
Ive found a few. For instance here's 1, Im sure you could use it on our trucks with a little fitting.

I hated to see her go.. I bought that truck bone stock. I think i stood outside for 10-15 minutes longer after i seen her drive away!! After all the long hours of being in my garage all night installing parts and tweeking things, Its like your so attached to something you put all your time in, just to see it drive away one day and never see it again. But on the other hand my new SS will soon to be Bad Ass!! After winter of course. Got so many plans to accomplish next summer for her. Here's a pic of when i bought the dakota RT. Everything was done to it this summer.

Awsome.. another R/T owner. Here's a few pics of mine before i sold it for my SSS. Loved that little truck. Put thousands into it. Mine had a 2/3 drop with 20's.

A vacuum gauge is very helpful whether you got boost or not. It can tell you if you got worn rings or diluted oil. It can tell you if you got sticking, burned or leaking valve's, Poorly seated valve's, Weak valve springs, late valve timing. Retarded ignition timing, intake leak, Blown head gasket, Clogged exhaust system. Thats if you know how to read them, here's a great site on how to read a vacuum gauge with scenario's you can click .

LOL.. Yup to late already cut and applied. I used GILA ULTRA SHIELD. 20%. and its like right on to the natural eye. I think 15% would of made it to dark and the rears would have been lighter. Well im happy with the outcome.

-

-
