If you look at the instructions it says to undo the front bolts and drop it a 1/2" Not...I had to pull all the bolts to get the front to sag enough. The Pumpkin was on the jack but also can rest on the rear subframe, which was nice. I reinstalled the fronts first, lined up the back, did the same and torqued.
I'd say it took under 2 hours by myself. All in all it was fairly simple. I start marking all my nuts and bolts with a marker pen. I went around and did everything I've touched. It will be way easier and give me piece of mind at a glance. |

I did something for my 86 key... the little things.
I will make the assumption the Japanese means 86 too and some jackass didn't just stick random words on there. I also ordered a license plate relocation kit. |

Looks like it. Little spendy though. If you have access to metal working tools it wouldn't be hard to make your own

I switched back to E85 this morning. I missed it while I was on the 93 tune for the past week.
Welcome back, torque! |

NO. The stock position is off the top of the trunk, which is weak and flexible compared to the back of the truck which is much more stiff and stronger. So I kept the same height as stock, but positioned it 6" farther back.
