    plug wire swap

I ran a short cheapo temporarily to get to and from work, so all 6 would fire. I finally got new Bosch wires...

    final spindle decision

    If got the 10.25" rotors on a 02 2wd. looking at all three spindle options I know of: Fabtech, Doetsch, & off brand (Spring Tech).

I'd like to try a 2" spacer or coil, but have had issues in the past; and apparently the spindles cut down on turning radius and you have to run a different set of rims (said the threads on RPS) which blows. Anyone w/ ball joint issues...
