Truck is sick man!! Can you possibly take some pics of how the front end is setup unerneath when you have a moment. No rush I'm just trying to figure out what direction I'm going to take leaves or coils and trying to look at as many builds as possible!
Thanks guys I really appreciate it!
El_Beautor - Yeah money is always an issue haha. Peice by peice Im getting it together. Still need to order a bigger sway bar up front but we have a VERY limited options and make custom mounts (extended mounting points) and make some new end links at my friends shop. How are your procomp 2" leafs working out? Is it a whole pack or was it actual add a leafs? And was there any sag down the road? Im looking at replacing my jacked up ones down the road after I extended the REAR driveshaft :/
RexMBurns - I got your pics for you. Its a YJ pitman arm with a YJ drag link and tie rod set up. I need to make an extended drag link before I can level out my steering wheel safely. Does you roof rack mount to our existing points? or did it require any mods to install?

Ignore the half *** bed lined shocks haha. To lazy to pull em off to finish.


Leafs are a lot easier to install for a SFA and pretty cheap to set up, but the look and ride comfort and flex ability of coils is just so much better.
Awesome thanks man!! Just compiling ideas in my head right now and I'm searching everyday for the right prices on the right parts and I'll be picking them up slowly as I go. I used ubolts to bolt my rack to the factory rack. The only mod I had to do was drill the holes in the cross bars of the rack for the ubolts to fit into. I plan to do it different one day with square ubolts (not sure what there really called) but so far it has worked great with zero issues. Surco sells a mounting kit but they are rediculous and want $100 for the thing so I spent $7 on the ubolts lol!!
richphotos - Thats actually with a spray can gloss clear on them already lol its the rustoleum lens tint.
rexmburns - thats the way to do it. It took forever to get "finished" but taking my time would have saved me several big face hunneds haha. Live and learn I guess...
Thats pretty cool. Id go that route too lol 100 bucks for a install kit... youre out your damn mind haha. I was looking into the Volant CAI, the reviews are positive but I just went with K&N. Did you notice any gains from it besides sound?
