Well bags were empty this morning so I guess I have a leak. Time to get the squirt bottle filled with soap and water.

Bummer.

No biggy there's always little things to work out. Wouldn't be surprised if the $6 gauge is leaking or possibly something pulled apart, rubbed or got burnt on the exhaust. I didn't check the pressure until I got to work. I thought I did a good job routing and securing the lines but until its put through some driving you never know.

Oh yeah, I know. I just finished running 3/8” aluminum hard lines on my bagged Silverado and I was trying for no leaks at 200 psi. I still have one tiny one but it’s so small that I can’t find it with soapy water.

Well didn't get to tracking down the air leak but I did some more research on diff covers that will fit.

Basically I need a cover that's 3" or less thick. At 3" that gives me about 1/2" space which really I'd like more than that even. Don't think I'll find an "upgraded" cover that fits.

Is that with the QA1 panhard installed?

PML makes the lowest profile cover

Huh never heard of them. I've found it's kinda hard to find parts for the 9.5. Not that you can't find stuff but the big stores like summit don't carry all the obscure brands. Will have to check that out asap!

Do you have one?

Yes sir that's with the QA1 curved bar. 9.5 is a fat daddy lol.

 

[Dantheman1540]

Oh big dog this looks sweet but idk if it will clear. Might have to grind some fine down.

 

[Dantheman1540]

I stand corrected I think this one will work.

 

[Dantheman1540]

Going to do some parts ordering tomorrow.

-PML slim cover (Thanks randeez)
-DJM endlinks. (Thanks Kim Jung Un)
-Proper sized lug nuts for the cop wheels

Anyone have any better suggestions? Help me send my moneyyyyyy.

Which lugs are you getting?

Which lugs are you getting?

Same thing I have in my silvy but in chrome. Mostly chose chrome because it goes with the caps and is $4 cheaper per set.

I would have run the ugly stock ones that came with the wheels but they are short and my socket is too thick to fit in the hole if the center cap. Makes it real awkward. Likely going to put the 20s back on next week but the ppv wheels will still make appearances here and there for burnouts until the tiny tires are gone and I find some good highway tires to replace them.

For sale? If not I will order one in the morning somewhere. But I like supporting forum members.

Have the same thing in black for my silvy. 5 years or so and they still looks great when clean.

Yup. I sold the 22's, and like a dummy I gave him the lugs too.
