      I like to think I truly treat each customer car like it is my own. I really try to take the time and do things correctly. Thanks for the view!

    Things got a little more complicated since the 70's when I installed new king pins in my Ford E300. Great instructional!

    Love the video. However, definitely need a vehicle lift. Attempted this in my driveway and realized the sway bar is an absolute nightmare unless the vehicle is fully lifted. Rookie move. Welp. Going to the shop to get it done. :(

    Hey Tyler, thanks for all the great videos. So helpful! I do need a little of your knowledge of that socket combination you mentioned in the video that keeps the internal shock shaft from turning when removing. Can you share the sizes of that special tool? I think it's on summit, but wanted to confirm the sizes.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      The nut is a 20mm and the stud is a 10mm, I'm trying to find a aftermarket solution for that tool. Thanks for the view!

      You are correct and you can get it taken care of for free at the dealership here is a video that explains everything. Thanks for the view!

    I like that special socket tool for the end of the shock. I bet it made you some money since you bought it.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 роки тому +1

      After having a fox racing shock explode in my face, I use the tool now lol I very literally painted the shop wall and myself in shock oil

    I had dealership do mine. Really easy they just ask if u want it replaced and 100% free. Might need to find strong springs due to this massive fab four winch bumper I have now lol

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 роки тому

      Or a leveling kit to help lol Thanks for the view!

    • @Grumpybird
      @Grumpybird 2 роки тому

      I was thinking that to but I'm not sure. It seems it has more bounce than it use to. With everything it added roughly 235lbs bumper and winch. Probably do both and that way I can add 37" tires lol

    Nice video Tyler, I am going to be installing some Gieser springs tomorrow using your videos. Problem is I can’t find any shops with a wall mounted spring compressor! Do you know if you can reset ride height using Alfaobd?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      I think someone has said that alfa obd has the option to reset it but I have not personally tried. Thanks for the view!

    I like the shock disassembly/removal socket you have what are the sizes?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      I think the nut is a 21 and the center shaft is a 10mm but it has been a minute since I have had a TRX apart. Thanks for the view!

  • @SuperbikeCoach

    Thanks for all those TRX videos Tyler.
    I am confused with my TRX and I was wondering if you know what to do here:
    My suspension doesn't show any differences in driving modes.
    It also feels erratic going over rough road as it comes out of bumps unevenly.
    What do you think?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      It might need the ride height sensors recalibrated at the dealership, does it have any messages on the dash?

    • @SuperbikeCoach
      @SuperbikeCoach Рік тому

      @TylerPotter nothing on the dash, and I reset ride height via alfaobd

    Whats your thoughts on the crank pulley. Notice any performance improvements?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 роки тому

      It has been trouble free for me. It really does give you a nice little bump in power, I can always notice the loss of power when I drive a stock TRX now. Thanks for the view!

    Do you have a link for the socket you have on video ?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      No it is a Mopar tool, but the nut is a 20mm and the stud is a 10mm.

  • @chadbingham8069

    Do you have a link or a name for the shock socket?

    • @chadbingham8069
      @chadbingham8069 Рік тому

      And what size is it?

    • @chadbingham8069
      @chadbingham8069 Рік тому

      Actually, I don't need it to install a perch collar, right? I don't need to remove the spring.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  Рік тому

      If you are using a strut machine to compress the spring you probably won't need to remove the shock top mount to get the collars installed. Thanks for the view!

    anyone ever figure out another app or tuner that can do a ride height calibration? dealer is telling me weeks before they can get me in to hit a simple button and do it.

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 роки тому +1

      I'm not sure of one but hopefully someone will chime in. Thanks for the view!

    Any update on the air intake temps?

    • @TylerPotter
      @TylerPotter  2 роки тому

      I talked with him just the other day and he is reporting 10° to 15゚ higher intake temperatures vs the stock intake at similar outside temperatures.
