HAHAHAHAHA I can't help but laugh 
I think the dude is a complete idiot but, it is funny because so many people call him out and yet he still posts up stupid *****!
Tool...Stop being dumb. I am starting to think you act/say the stuff you do on purpose just to get some attention like a little baby. You act just like your dumb *** screen name.
str8t the trac bars look awesome! I cant wait to get all my stuff installed. You know what I am talking about. Parts start coming in tomorrow and the install will happen this weekend.

I cant wait! I find it hard to sleep cause I keep adding to my internal brain list haha. Mike troyer will be doing the tuning. Here is my list of stuff to buy still
I hope Mike will be gracious enough to give me a package deal for all his parts, install, and dyno tune...

why not just grab some used 42# injectors off a L?

The headers are coming in the kit I bought. I don't remember what brand they are. I seriously cant wait to get this build going! I am thinking about mad's efan kit also. I have to look more into it. Troyer said if I go with efan kit I will have to find another way to mount my inter cooler coolant tank. Do you know anyone or company that makes a bracket that will work with a efan kit?

if you go with mikes efan kit, his uses the stock fan shroud. so you can use the stock L IC tank.

Right! I should know better myself 
Never argue with a fool, - they will drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
Sorry buddy, - maybe I can get Patrick to de-clutter.

Good call on the traction bars at the dunes. I experienced wheel hop out there last summer, I definately got out of the gas when I felt it happening. Nice way to snap axles, ring and pinion, etc back there. Plus it looks cool

You don't need to have the truck like in your video all you really need to do is load up the torque converter right before it breaks traction and inch forward. You will see the most axle wrap then.

Come on guys...you're killin me. Most of you have been around long enough to know that you DON'T FEED THE TROLLS! And you guys just keep him going. Not the first time llTOOLj has rambled on like this; so stop feeding him.
Str8...what did you do with the adjustment on the bars? Is it just to get the length correct or do you apply force one direction or the other so that it's either pushing or pulling on the axle so to speak?

I like Flex-a-lite's kit also. Do you know if they retain the stock fan shroud? The price is good IMO too.
