20 degrees? I think that's exaggerated a bit. That's a lot of change for an engine's coolant temperature. Update us on your change when you test it out I'm interested if it's true since my A/C doesn't work anyways. I don't have any cooling issues though...

Removed the 2nd leaf under my main from the Alcan packs because they were still way to stiff..now its at 4 leafs and much much better!!! Then I installed my shackle relocation brackets and re-attached the rear bumper.
Now that I got the SRB's in I can remove the 6* shims and that should put me spot on...still need longer drive shaft though. Looks like I'll be hitting up the Salvage Yard
