Does it really matter which side the reservoir is on?

Apparently with articulation there’s more clearance with the frame. It didn’t look that way to me, but I got it confirmed.

I haven’t finished wiring them yet. I hope to get it done this weekend and I’ll post some pics then

No, just commiserating with a fellow brain fart sufferer.

It happens more and more.

Let us know what you think. I’m curious if it gets better mpg. I watched some videos and there’s a lot of oil going through there.

I take it you are adding oil between changes.

Got my 37s and RockTrix wheels mounts and put them on!

I'm curious as well. I have heard a lot of mixed opinions on these. But last time I changed my air filter I saw an excessive amount of oil in the intake - but not so bad it drained down to the air filter yet. Still....concerning. It seems to be not so uncommon

Lifted? Leveled?

Stock in those pics but I have a 1.5 leveling kit to go on soon as the weather cooperates

The OE tube wasn't what I would call dirty or wet, but damp? with what appeared to be clean looking light oil residue.
I understand that port injection negates much of the issues caused by this, but I am morbidly curious about what's being fed back into my fuel and air mixture to be burned off or churned out of the exhaust the hard way.

I rinse it off every now and then.
Annual detail time is fast approaching.

I’ve rinsed a couple times at the car wash with the low pressure spot free rinse, but I’m really worried about shorting something out, so I don’t do a great job. I’ve heard enough horror stories.
