This was about as hard as adding washer fluid.

No need to jack up the truck or remove the wheels. Just unbolt and remove the 2 nuts/bolts on each end of the damper, remove old damper, install new damper, replace nuts and bolts and you're done!

I installed a TerraFirma damper from Lucky8.

What a cheap-*** attempt at getting in the stickies!

And for part 2 of ylo's technical tech, "how to set your cruise control"...wait, that actually might be helpful to many.

 

LOL! I think this has "sticky" material written all over it! This was definitely NOT meant to be taken with 100% seriousness

I was thinking that a "How to : Engage the 4WD" will be my next "project", stay tuned

 

Rob,
Was that stabilizer gas filled or just fluid?

 

what benefits going with a terra or emu over stock replacement in terms of on/off road feel?

 

Fluid, here's the link --> Lucky8 Llc. - Take the road less traveled...

For me it was price : $57 for the TF, and $81 for the OME.

 

i did my OME a couple months back.

so you did a how to on 2 bolts and a shock???

its not that complicated,,,hahahahahhahahaa just messin with ya

 

I had to do P90X, rent a pickle fork, and then buy a box of band-aids when I did the damper on my FJ40 so I fully expected another fight on the Disco. I laughed out loud as soon as I laid down underneath the truck and saw it was just 2 bolts Not sure how I managed to miss that in the months leading up to this swap.

I had to at least have an excuse to share the pic of how pretty the new one is

 

like is there a seat of the pants feel difference, or an added bonus that youd get in some situation off road compared to stock?

 

Haven't taken it off road with the new damper yet...but couldn't tell a difference around town...
