Thanks. Will check out the air leaks. I did read about the washer trick last night. Also saw the tip about if you break the dog ear on one of the uprights. You can switch it with the one on the other side. I wish I would of figured that out earlier. I spent about 45 minutes in the park I walk to trying to zip tie the broken one so I wouldn't have to carry it home. It at least a mile back to the house. Got the zip ties to work so I could limp it home but sure would of been easier to swap the two.

Thanks for the tip tonkabilly.

lol. Everythign on mine has stayed together, but i've broken 2 "dog ears" now. They are making the rotation around the truck. I think I'll get some alu uprights eventually, I hate R camber links.

I may have air leaks in my lrp.28, but mostly I've got it to a good place and leave it as is, usually a rich for safety. BTW the savage is plagued by a half tank lean due to the stupid tank design. Tuning really changes. Don't let that catch you out. Google it for fixes.
