    Lifting my truck. help

    What does your current 2" lift consist of? Are you a 2wd or 4wd? With what you have described, you should be perfectly fine. Im running a 2wd ST with a very nice Camburg 6.0 kit. This kit consists of new spindles,new upper arms, longer shocks for the front. Plus you need to adjust the T-bars...

    Parts Cleaner in engine????

    Dude, I call total Bullshit on your 70w race motor oil!!! I happen to know what Cup and Nationwide cars are using for Qual, and Race day. Unless your Indy Lights cars have clearances like old school 1960 motors, you would have to prove to me those Indy Lights ran that heavy of an oil! Until you...

    Hard brake pedal when going fast off road

    Russell, and Dakota thanks for your replies. I do not remove the abs relays, fuses ect. I know for sure my issue is not the abs. I have been a professional driving coach in many types of vehicles for 20years. Driving fast in anything with abs takes some getting use to. We would spend a lot of...
