what a difference!!

i moved my throttle linkage to the other mounting hole. which i saw in an earlier thread. all i can say is wow!! what a difference. i haven't even got into major upgrades and my truck just gets better and better! if anyone hasn't done this mod i recommend highly. it always felt like i had to floor my truck to go anywhere. not so much anymore

Nice isnt it, less go pedal gets you moving and it feels like it responds alot better.

Does this change your idle RPM? OR do you simply adjust it back to stock? Thanks, Robert

No, the idle does not change.

You do have to adjust the throttle rod, it winds up being too long with the ball in the inner hole. If it's too long you won't get full throttle travel.
