I’d you have a Fastenall nearby it should be under $50, give or take. I shipped a transmission, doubler, and transfer case through them on a skid for about $150.
Texas state inspection does not have a place on the inspection list to fail for leaking PS fluid. So he would of had to fail you for something else per the machine to say “Fail” on the print out that comes from the inspection machine itself. So I’d look at that sheet and see what it says...
I do about 200 miles a week on my 80, it would be more, but I don't have a commute to or from work, and I have a work truck. I also wheel it each chance I get. 267k and going strong with a little oil consumption between changes
Well I did a little measuring and found I can safely go up another 2" in ride height with current tires.
So I guess that gives me a few additional options now too.
I know what you meant by tuning and revolving the shocks, I am there with you.
What 12" bolt in shock are you using? I prefer King...
How many coil over rates? A whole lot more than 9! I can pretty much order whatever I think I may need, then if it isn't right exchange the springs back out...

If it is this easy, bolt in and make a few adjustments, then I'm in. No question. Just feel like the 10" of travel will hinder speed to, not sure to what extent tho. I know I'm not going the way most do with their 80's and that buying...
You say better tuning, however there are not a lot of coil springs to choose from, sure I could run some bypasses but with what springs? Then we get back into the travel that is available, about 10 inches total with a 2-3" lift, I don't feel like that is really enough travel. And with the...
It has been crazy! And I have been very busy, but I have been trying to stay posted up on this.
Good news too!
After talking to a few racing friends, this thread and throwing a few different ideas around with people.. It has been deemed my budget is weak and needed to be doubled or...
I would probably be more willing to spend my money on the Kings and up my budget than running the Fox or Icon stuff. We have all King suspension on the car also.
Still wanting to know some actual part numbers and or what others have used and done.
So much like the title says is what I am looking for. I have searched and found very little. I want to be able to travel at 45-50 mph across the desert in my 80. More specifically, I NEED to be able to travel 45-50 mph in my 80 at king of the hammers on the desert loop sections.
I am the crew...
