    My first setting blows low, and everything else is high, but those are pretty much the only two settings I ever use anyways so I haven't felt the need to fix mine yet.

    i just figured it out after tearing apart the dash. pulled the resistor out and it was soaking wet, and its dripping water out of where it goes. I'm going to seal it up and figure out where the f the water is coming from

    they must be close. so can you not use the threaded rod from the skyjacker kit to put the heims on? or is there an alternate use for the threaded rod I'm missing

    When you add the helm it gets rid of the post where the end of the rod would be. They also add 1/2" having the helm so this allows you to cut to 6 1/2" once assembled to ensure proper length.

    all you 4th gen guys jumping ship isn't very convincing. But I found a nice Black 05 Sport V8... in Chicago. 157k miles... 10,900. I'm thinking more like 10 with tax title and fees.

    I never understand why people get emotionally attached to a vehicle.

    Its a never ending money pit that continues to take up all your time and
    mind capacity. But we all still do it.... :facepalm:.
