[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 720061, member: 6317"] Well I was hoping some videos would pop up but I haven't seen them yet. Overall the rig worked great. I can tell a subtle difference in the front suspension on climbs since I changed my link placement and decreased the "dive/squat" hoping to encourage the front to settle a little easier. I ended up with the axle end of the uppers an inch lower than before along with one extra hole to move them up an inch if I wanted to go back. As far as the motor goes...it worked great. The temps stayed in check (195F) and that was my biggest concern going into the day. Bottom line is I hate screwing with cooling systems...its got to do with not being able to see it work. Sure an electrical system is similar, but I can use a meter to test circuits and disconnect wires to diagnose, but a cooling system is a closed circuit and there doesn't seem to be much you can do with them other than just keep messing with them until its right. I've just got a few small things I'd like to tackle before Harlan, but the rig is ready to go today if I needed to and thats a good feeling. [/QUOTE]
