    Clearance issue

    Very minor problem here, just wondering what you guys with lowered trucks usually do to fix. Since I lowered my truck the rear axle is about 2-3" off the rubber bump stops. So when I hit a decent bump it launches the back end which got old pretty quick. Should I just cut the bumpers??or replace...

    "OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?

    All the way on mine. 8 turns. Dunno if it was stock first tho. I turned the right side all the way out then half a turn in to keep the bolt from falling out then matched the left side by counting turns. If it'd been any higher I'd a had to buy lowering keys.... Got the shackles el cheapo off...

    "OFFICIAL" What did you do to your D-Max today?

    Remote Control Valves.

    Unless the controls are housed in a multi-function block as opposed to just standalone valves, couldn't you just run electric over hydraulic solenoids parallel to the original valves? I.E. t-ing off ahead and behind the valves making it operable from both remote and at the controls.

    Remote Control Valves.

    Sweet trailer. I pull a Wilson Patriot. I don't have any input in your question tho.... So you're wanting to go electric over air over hyd?? Or just electric over hydraulic? Seems the latter would be simpler and easier to control. Dunno what type of controller you're wanting to use but wouldn't...

    Like I said I'm green... I'm not aware of any shops close to me. There's alot of guys around here running diesels but they just do the handheld tuner thing and blow $400+ on em too. Not really my style. If I'm gonna spend that kinda dough I want something I can use. I'm not against trans...

    LLY: Newb tuning questions

    On a budget so I'm looking for cheap power. Found a few Diablosport Predator tuners reasonable on eBay. Seem to be for 06-07 LLY/LBZ, would these work on my 05 LLY?? And would it be worth my money? Also the pros and cons of strait piping it?
