wait? what wait? just got it three weeks ago.

Thanks for all the advice- I have been wheeling many times, but never with my own vehicle. very pumped to get it out there.

So leave the sway bars? I was always told the opposite.

lower tire pressure? if so, what psi for best results? Also I am getting clear vynil to protect the paint on the fender flares.

Don't worry about the sway bars. Sewie is right. Right now its not a big deal.

YES. Lower your tire pressure. 21-22 PSI is good for the stock Bridgestones.

Pull off the center caps. It takes 10 seconds and could save you $$$. Better safe than sorry.

Do a search on and read up on BTM. If one of the more experienced people is familiar with it have them demonstrate/explain it. Knowing BTM will make you MUCH happier.

Have fun. Be safe. Repete.

did a search on BTM... came back too many to display- what does it stand for, maybe I have already heard if it.

Very much plan on repeating.

BTM = Brake Throttle Modulation (basically two-footing it)

Old article about the H1 but it explains how it works.
