Running XRT Pro on Hot: Question

Assuming I keep my foot out if it and drive normally, does it do any damage to my engine to run XRT Pro on Hot?

No, but you should definitely have constant EGT monitoring and never lug the transmission.

Make sure your EGT's are not high and you should be good.

This is just my experience.

Can you PM me with pics of your load controller install? I saw your bag install but never your upgrade

I haven't installed the load controller yet. I have a corner in my garage filled with the following items just waiting for me to find time to install them...

- Load Controller for air bags
- Carli adjustable track bar
- HBS steering stabilizer
- Cabin air filter
- Ranch Hand bed rails & headache rack
- Ranch Hand front bumper replacement

That said, when I get all that stuff actually installed I'll take pics.

Brother, if I were in Texas I would come over and give you a hand.

For the HBS Steering Stabilizer, simple and fast install but I sure do wish you would have done it when you did the sway bar drop bracket because that thing is gonna need to be dropped in order to slide the stabilizer between the brackets and frame. Either way not a huge deal. I learned the hard way also.

I would also ensure you have lock nuts on the drop bracket that way they do not fall off. I have heard of a few guys saying HBS did not send them any. I got them with my kit though

It definitely would have been easier if I'd done it when I put the drop brackets on, but it's no biggie. I don't recall if I had lock nuts or not, but I'll put blue Loctite on everything when I put them back on.

I installed the headache rack and bed rails tonight. It was dark when I finished so I couldn't get any good pics, but I think it looks pretty good. I still have to put the lights in it, but I'll take care of that tomorrow. I need to try to get it all knocked out, but I also have a play set to build for my kids before Christmas so that takes priority.
