@@FixedVaneDuramax awesome man!!! Looking forward to updates! Hope everything goes well!
Good videos brother awesome truck
Are the moser rear axle upgrade a good investment for towing?
Hey man I have a 2004 lb7 dmax and Im looking for a good blow off vaulve do you have any recommendations? Just had a straight pipe resonator delete and a tune. Please reach out love your videos btw
Hey! What is the reasoning for the blow off valve? Besides the fact they do sound sweet lol XDP sells a couple different Turbosmart kits, here is a link to one and you can look at the options.

What rear wheel spacers are those?
1.5" just amazon or ebay specials, can't remember which. But, they've been through 15+ sledpulls, towed a bunch of trailers, a few trips down the dragstrip, and plenty of street abuse without an issue!
Love the vids have a lbz myself... What is the purpose of mounting both the shocks behind the axle... Better ride quality or strictly sled pulling setup?
I actually did it for drag racing while I was restoring the frame last winter, to aid with 60' launch times. I need to swap out for a softer shock than Fox 2.0s though they are pretty stiff in this configuration.
@@FixedVaneDuramax interesting... So for a daily driver/sled puller it's not something I should look in to?
I would not recommend it no. There is no benefit there, it is a stiffer ride on the street, and for sledpulling you should ideally be completely blocking any suspension travel.
@@FixedVaneDuramax good to know! Thanks man! Keep up the videos👍
What kit did you use for the same sided shock mounts ?
And what were your differences in 60 ft times if you don’t mind me asking ?
Josh Jolley Its a qa1 kit I bought off summit racing. I havent actually gotten the chance to test it out honestly, the events I normally would have attended were cancelled this year.
