Had half a day all to myself....so I pulled the front tires, pulled the stock UCA's and threw on the SPC's. Easy peasy. Grinded down the coil buckets while I was in there. I was a little nervous about that, not knowing exactly how much to take off, but when you prefit the UCA's you can easily see where and just keep taking some off till full range of motion is contact free. Just drove it around the block and over some speed bumps at speed and no contact. I think I'm good to go. I have a world class alignment guy so I'll be there at 8am on Monday.







I also got some 1.5 inch spacers. I didn't install them as I didn't have time to deal with fender work and the SPC's. Thinking next weekend I'll really get into it and paint all the plastic...finish the wiring of all the new lights and do the spacers.



Nice! I have the same UCA and they gave me extra 2" of droop. Did you grease those bushings?

Wow those  are really big spacers Chris.

For me, I just picked up this little guy from Wilco at Santa Ana



People following me is going to finally stop telling me my spare tire is falling. Hahaha (it’s not)

This will run double duty between the dodge and the Frontier.

I still need to wire my own Lic plate mount/light and a beer bottle opener.

My HCOR rear bumper arrived today, less than two weeks since placing my order. :)

Nice Bumper,

They did better than I thought they would. I didn't expect much at all from them this season, even though they started off insanely hot.

Personally, I'm cheering for the Knights, just because they're kind of a Cinderella story right now.  Anywhoo...

For the truck...I received my ScanGauge back from being updated.  The new update allows me to read two different AT temps and I can also program TPMS if I want.  Personally, I have the Gauge setup to read water temp, intake air temp, and the two AT temps because I think this gives a pretty good picture of what's going on with the truck.

I am sending my Scangauge this week for an update, looking forward to getting temps.
