I guess the timing chain wasn't the problem I went to start it this morning and nothing. I need to do a compression test. I think I may have a sticking valve.

Thanks bud. I'm really anxious to get my shocks now. Idk what's up with the motor. I noticed the egr was unplugged and it seems to be running better since I plugged it back in and put fresh gas in it. I still think the timing chain made a big difference. The tranny is being Wierd now. It's not wanting to downshift while slowing down but the more I drove it today the better it got.

Unfortunately I decided to hold off on my shocks. Instead I'm going to build a are of radius arms. My heim joints are supposed to be here tomorrow. I got my pipe today and my plate. I have 1 1/2 schedule 80 and 3/16 plate.

I didn't take a pic but I got the pass side built. Gonna build the drivers tomorrow. I hate how low those current ones hang.
