Thanks for the info. That could save a whole lot of $$$.

Sorry if I sound like an idiot but I'm new to working on my truck my self and am figuring out everything. I know where the coil pack is along with the wires and plugs but where is the t connector and how do I open the plastic casings?

Thanks again for any help. This forum helps me so much everyday!

the t connectors are just large plastic grey/black? fat t shape covers, there are 2 of them i think, they line up pretty much if you draw an imaginary line on each side of the motor going back, right below where the hood would meet the firewall. if you follow the wires up from the o2 senors they go into the bottom section of the t.

the other section im talking about, follow the connector on the mass airflow sensor back, it merges in at the front drivers side top of the motor with the wires for the SAI valve actuator thingies and a few other wires, then go into a "tunnel" that is formed by the upper intake manifold and goes back, exiting at the rear of the motor right below where i THINK the second T is...i havent looked back there in awhile haha. i can take pics if you want when i get home later.

Yeah I will look when I get home as well but any help is always appreciated here haha.

I see you're running guard dogs. Sorry to kind of go out of the way here but I was thinking of running them as well and wondering your thoughts on them? Is your disco your daily driver?

daily driver! except in summer, then its my zzr1200

so far i love em... but its my first non muscle car so it might just be the novelty haha. they are loud and heavy, but not too loud. this size took a bit of steering radius reduction, but i dont have any problems, the occasional back up to reallign a tight parking space say at the mall...but you could just get a smaller/shorter tire, i want big cause i wanted to even with them and 3" lift, you still sit about maybe an inch or so above a new empty 3500 ram pickup...so its not so tall you feel at risk. dry traction is good, but today was the first snow/ice day. BRILLIANT, you could mash the gas and not a slip to be felt, stright on and true turning and braking... and they are so damn tall i think i 4" of fresh snow would be like a half inch to a car lol. the tread depth is MASSIVE.

ps. and for the price, even if i shred on somewhere down the line, its not a $300 whoopsies like some other tires!

That's good to hear! I would love to have some just based on the reviews as well as the price! I think I would have to go with the shorter ones to make sure the truck still fits into the garage. Do you think I could run 265 75 16's for a little while before I have to money to buy the 2" lift? I'm still trying to find 16 inch rims on Craigslist which is a hassle.
