    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    when looking at the Mopar lift kit which is struts, shocks, rear spacer and UCA ‘s , it also includes bumper pad spacers and new track bar brackets. I understand the UCA’s but why the bumper pad and track bar parts? Is this required due to the two inch rear adjustment? Have not heard of anyone...

    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    BIGHORN gets Bilstein 5100’s

    Does a rear spacer affect ride much at all? It shouldn’t mess with spring/shock travel like the front end spacers. Which spacer brand did u go with? Assume I should go with Bilsteins all around as rear shocks can handle a 1 inch lift as well. I still like idea of the Icon spring as lifting...

    License Plate Reverse light

    What checks would you suggest? I installed using the harness method and it worked perfectly until now. Connections are tight and dry . Had a few rain storms this week but everything is dry and taped up.

    Well, after having a software adjustment a few months back thought all was well but now with our 95 deg plus high humidity in Houston it is not cooling down. Vent output takes 15-20 minutes to achieve an acceptable comfort level. Wife won’t ride in truck for any short trips. Her vehicle blows...
