I drive that truck like a mad man, but this one time I restricted myself to cruise on the interstate @ 75mph for two hours. It was tough but I did get to see the gas mileage potential of the truck. Never again!

Covers look good btw.

Do you have the part number for the fitting farthest to the left? The first blue fitting coming from the tank. What does the tall upper balljoint do? Does it improve suspension geometry?
