Home from our walkabout, looks like it's time to pull the heads, hopefully it's just gaskets.

Looks fantastic. What wheels are you running? And what’s the offset?

What size tire are you running? Did you do a lift at all?

2" spring lift, 265/75r16. Basically a 32in tire. Works perfectly for what I do.

Trip back from the MS/LA meetup was interesting, didn't drink a bit of water down and back but threw 2 codes, PO171and PO134...I'm used to the later(02 sensor) but the other is a lean bank code same side as the 02 code..driver's side bank 1...checked everything..MAP, 02 sensors were reading flat...then I noticed a coating of oil in the throttle body..hmmm...so positive pressure in the crank case...low and behold..the oil filler cap had loosened...picky picky engine.. tightened it up and Bam..back to normal...and I bet my water woes return.

Right on!

Need to pull them sway links. Awesome flex after you do it. Granted the she becomes another beast on the black top even with the rears disco'd only.

I think if you have ACE it works like an automatic sway bar disconnect and gives more flex. “I think” is that main word. I could be way off.

What's the fun in that!! I kept backing up and pulling forward bouncing between 2 wheels...my daughter was screaming and I was laughing hysterically!! Granted, if I was on serious trails, sway bars would be disc'd. [emoji12]
