  • Well, if you gotta drag something, I figure the muffler is probably the cheapest and easiest to replace. Yes no?

      I'm worried that if it hits a large bump or crack it could shunt the exhaust backwards. I know its a long shot but that could make its way up to the manifold & block

      Finding out if the exhaust place next door to the suspension place can do it this week, if they cant I will get it done later elsewhere

        Power/Air Lines are all run along the frame
        Tank is back from the powder coater
        Tank/Compressors are all mounted up
        Pressure switch was faulty and is being replaced with another one
        Mounting points for height sensors are all measured up and just need to be bolted on and connected

        Should be picking it up tomorrow so stay tuned for some more pictures soon

        Its nearly been a month since I last drove this thing looking forward to getting behind the wheel again

              • lame update #99:

                Picked up the car but trying to sort out a charging issue. Had the alternator/battery/voltage regulator all replaced about a month ago so drove it straight from the suspension shop to my mechanic for him to dig a bit deeper.. maybe the alternator is a lemon.

                but driving between the 2 places hell it was fun driving it. rode real nice.... I'd say a bit more plush

                It's running no front shocks at the moment but I think I will have them put in just for peace of mind. for some reason, it freaks me out thinking there is no shocks.

                • lame update #100

                  Alternator is only 55 amp and despite being upgraded form stock 35amp a few weeks ago is not enough to handle the 2 compressors at idle, when driving and revs are up it's ok.

                  Got a red top ultima battery in there now also

                  Should be fine to run as is and just keep an eye on everything over the next few weeks

                  heading down to grab it from the mechanics tonight
