Do those "Wonder Oils" really work?
While we try to refrain from degrading other products that we haven't tested...we've tested these and they
do NOT work and have had claims filed against them from the FTC.

Lubricants that work in outer space may not work here on earth at all. Materials like PTFE are claimed to
have the lowest coefficient of friction, but even the manufacturer of PTFE do not recommend it to be used
in an internal combustion engine. Why? It cannot withstand the heat! It is too fragile a compound and it
decomposes and turns into a sticky plastic residue and a corrosive fluorine gas. Are you sure you want this
in your crankcase?
Shocks - Lifted or Lowered Trucks
So you've lifted or lowered your truck...but does that mean that you need a different length shock? Not
necessarily. You need a different length shock if the distance between the shock's upper and lower
mounting points have changed drastically.
Say you've lowered your truck with 2 in. drop spindles in front and 3 in. lowering blocks in back. The
distances between the shock mounting points have decreased, but are still within the limits of a stock
length shock.
But what if you go with a 4 in. front/6 in. rear slam? The shock mounting points will be closer together and
now you'll need shorter shocks. The same principle applies to trucks with suspension lift kits (Body lift kits
don't affect shock mounting points).
