Update On Ex Upgrades

Well, I got the Bilstein's and the Hellwig put on this weekend. Waiting on the brakes to come in. Seems to have made a big difference. I think I may have picked up a little vibration. Any toughts on what I may have done?

Bart,

When does the vibration come into play?

Have you checked the torque on wheels and U-Bolts on the axle from the RAS install?

what you THINK is vibration you did not have before, COULD be the ABS.
