What exactly did you bend the torsion bars or the frame hitch itself?

I was thinking more along the lines of the slippery aquatic life!

Crappy website and picture but if you are looking at the picture it is the part at the left end that the big sway bar slides in.

Thanks I plan on it Jay! Hey Jay I noticed you have deleted your EBPV, does it take any longer time to warm up when its cold out? I have been thinking of unplugging mine for a while now.

I did not notice any difference in warmup time Troy. I did mine out of necessity a couple winters ago. I sprung a massive leak out the actuator rod and it was my only transportation. I over nighted a delete pedestal from Rons Turbo Service. This was before I learned that you could just gut the stock one. I actually would like to pick up a stock one again and re-install so I could use that as an exhaust brake. Like a dummy I through my old one away before I decided I wanted to do that. D'oh!

Throwing stock stuff out is a common habit.....I learned the hard way to keep an eye on your stock parts.


My truck is now sans catalytic converter.
