Spoiled her!

Well I washed, dried, Adams Glaze and waxed her with Adams Premium wax. Wife asked why I have an Adams Car Care Products sticker on our rear window, well this is why!

I finished my voltmeter gauge install. I was waiting on a less bright led so the gauge would light up white but wouldn't blind me.

I also used the supplied screws instead of the tape to secure the gauge pod. They are not really screws, more like plastic pegs that fit into 3/16" holes you drill into the plastic. Makes for a much more finished look. And by using the pegs the pod rests nice and snug against the column, making the SVT logo on the tach even more visible over the gauge.

Single LED replacement bulb.

The cables are visible because I didn't want to drill any more holes to route them. They're pretty discrete back there, but I had to cut a small notch on the edge of the gauge pod so I could route the cable through it and the pod would sit flush on top of the column.

1" synergy drop shackles.
Can't say I'm very pleased, even with mid perch I'm still a good bit taller in the rear.

Deaver +2, synergy drop shackles and mid perch on stock tires. 41.5" front,43.5" rear. Should've gone with the 2" drop shackles.


Interesting. I'm at 43.75" in the rear with my deaver +2 and no drop shackle (5,000 miles on them).

My front is also 41.5" on mid. I think my truck looks pretty level even though the measurements tell a different story.

If I had your height without the shackles I would be fairly happy, but to only be a 1/4" lower is a bit upsetting. I'm starting to think the readylift labelled deavers are actually +3s and not +2s. I only have maybe 2000 miles on my rear springs, maybe they'll settle?

Not sure if you had a part number on yours but here was mine:

Installed leather console lid and finished the interior - hydrodipped door panels and flat black trim. Gonna take care of that ugly chrome gear shifter Monday.
