Hijack on...

I have a 6 speed so that wasn't an issue. But still it should drop down enough though I don't know how tight the skid sits.

Hijack off....

Any progress on those bolts? We are here to help. At least I am in the same time zone as Folsom.

Oh well I'm off to bed. I'll check in the morning. Xperb if you need anything pm me your phone # if I can be of any help.

no you didn't. Don't take this wrong man, but I think you need to just pay someone to do the install.

did you drill the trackbar brackets and bumpstops? What did you use to get the pitman arm off? I am worried about your safety man.
