The key word there was yet.
I'm assuming you have factory suspension and don't care passengers often.
Lol yes stock height.
I do carry 2 adult passengers on a fairly regular basis.
Bags of horse feed sometimes
Loaded to the tits with camping stuff
Somehow havent rubbed!
you need 750lbs of load to rub lol..ask paul how he got that :chuckleQuote:

Also, with the SSP installed, you can really appreciate the need for solid shifter bushings so you can get positive feedback when putting the shifter in gear (especially from 3rd to 4th).
Do you feel the shifter seems a bit harder to go through the gates?Quote:

edit: imma go for a little drive now to get used to it.
I can get to the shifter cable under the shift boot easily (no tools required). I think I'll mess with this on the weekend and see how it goes
Yup, perhaps if you adjust the cables it might get better. I've never tried that though. Will try it out when I get the energy. :chuckleQuote:

those turbo setups are a work of art...in barbados.
loving the dp to turbo gasket on the left setup
Got my JBR TMM installed today, thanks Mr. Wilson for the help and advice during the install. Car shakes like a mofo now, but it's all good. Love how it feels when I shift now. The vibes should settle down after a couple hundred KM
No worries!
In time it will settle a bit.Quote:
