    could this product smooth out the ride???

    All of that stuff is junk. Go with a good shock and good tires. It all depends on what ride you want and if you are going to haul anything.

    Where the hell is it going?

    I would second the heater control valve. Just did mine at 97,000. Took 5 minutes. Autozone 14.99. Whoops, didn't see the response on plug. Yeah check for compression and run a leak down test.

    On the bubble

    I never post because of the search, but I can't find the answer. I have home made shackles and my drivers rear spring saggs 1/2" compared to passenger side. Could I use the extra holes in my drivers side shackle to compensate for the sag? If I do what are my saftey concerns? Thanks Guys Chris

    Red tint the yellow on tail lights... what color would it end up?

    Don't sand the paint. What you do is put light coats on until you get the desired color. Then apply a heavier coat just enough to make the paint look slick. Let it dry . Then it will be glossy.

    Running boards?

    Hey, What I did was to go to your local auto parts store and get some non-skid tape. Black works best and just apply it from front to rear over the holes. Everyone that has seen it, thinks it was a great idea. It was only $18 bucks . Chris

    aftermarket lights, to stock fog light switch?!?!

    Hey, Its no problem to do it. I did mine today, sorry no pics. All you have to do is cut the wires at the stock fog lights and splice in your new wires that go to the aftermarket fog lights. Remember you can only wire 2 lights to the stock system. If you need to add more lights you need...

    ? about stock measurement

    Doing everything myself. I called warrior and they told me that the shackle on the 97 only gave me a 1 1/4 lift. The AAL should give me 2" so I'll only be 2" in front and 3 1/4" in rear I don't believe that 1 1/4" will be that big of a deal . Plus sometimes I pull a trailer or load down the...
