I still am trying to understand the cognition concept. Isn't the ride still stiff and rough with the torsion bars turned up?

What size tires?

gorgeous (can I say that in here?) truck

what interior led lights?

I know you know by now, but putco makes some fine bulbs to replace the fog lights....mine have been in for 5 years with no burn outs

Keys are changed. They are turned maybe a1/4 inch. There is a solid 2 inches to go and a 1 inch block for the rear. That wasn't installed because keys were barely turned. 35 inch tires with small fender modification. They barely rubbed on rear of fender. Torsion bars could have been turned more but I didn't want to go that route. Truck has shock extensions as well.

I used Gm tech II to lower tire pressure threshold to 35psi instead of 60 psi. By doing that the tire pressure light goes out at 35 psi. I lowered tire pressures to 48 psi instead of 60 for a better ride. Truck rides great! Come drive it.

Do Work KRT. Look is cool and I bet it rides like a dream.

WhalerDave said he ain't got the $ at the moment and holla if you need to look at the BADASS FORD. Got a new 2-row radiator sittin next to me as the original has a small leak.

So the cognito presses the lower a-arm down lower/more than factory upper arm without having to turn up the keys?

**B.Miller** · 07-24-2014, 09:55 PM

I dig all but the heads. Pull the 4x4 stickers and colormatch the mirrors.

Oh and do this to the heads instead of tinting them:

I color matched my stickers as well to silver and black. They look so much better.

Biggie send me a close up of your sticker if you would.

In GA for work but will be home tomorrow and I will take a few pics.

Those lights look so much better. If you wanted to try and clear the stockers I can help you, we did it to ShotgunDave's truck and it looks killer.

No, the cognito arms make it so you can turn up keys and still have correct balljoint geometry and angles.

**KRT** · 07-25-2014, 04:08 PM

Cognito is for alignment angles

Bugbuster the kit I got you just change keys out to level. If you wanna raise it am additional 2 inches then crank the keys. My key are turned in 1/4 of the threads.
