    35's with a 3" lift?

    I'm running a 3" lift, 1.5" body lift, Spidertrax 1.5" spacers...my 35's only rub at full lock. I don't offroad and I haven't tubbed my wheel wells yet. I also need to replace all the control arm bushings since they're about 310k miles old so they flex back and forth way too much.

    About to order parts to do valve cover gaskets, are OEM parts necessary?

    As someone once said on here, there's a reason OEM stuff has lasted this long, so when I'm replacing worn out parts, I don't go cheap.

    Coil spring compressors - what are you using?

    They work just fine. I compressed my OME coils down with no issues. The only thing you have to do is completely unscrew the rod out of the hooks and slide them out separately when you've got the springs on the strut.

    Anyone Know a good mechanic in Fort Worth?

    If you can get down to Houston, Duggy's Garage in North Houston is awesome. They did all the timing belt, wp, etc. on my truck and had very fast turn around time.

    Wet Floorboards on Driver's Side?

    I had water coming in on the drivers side and it was because the previous owner had run a amp power wire through a grommet on the firewall but didn't plug it properly. I removed the wire and re-seated the grommet and it has been fine since then.

    Wheel bolt length greater than 27mm?

    I went with Spidertrax Spacers and it bolted up like normal and then had studs on the other side that the wheel bolted to.

    3rd gen frame swap services New England?

    You really shouldn't post your personal cell phone on a public forum like that. I'd remove it.

    AC compressor swap

    I bought a set of gauges from Harbor Freight and a vacuum and R134 fitting from eBay. All in all it ran me about $150 and I've used it over and over for multiple vehicles.

    AC compressor swap

    Make sure you put PAG oil in (if they don't come prefilled). Also, take your truck to get the system evacuated properly before swapping the parts.

    Considering buying a 99 Limited with 245000 Mike's. Risky?

    It's pretty rough but I knew what I was getting into when I bought it. It was throwing all kinds of codes and it freaked them out. I got the sheet from Autozone and instantly recognized what was going on (O2 sensors and MAF). They had it listed for $2500 but I threw $1400 at them because of the...
