Yea, I did some nice mud pits last week and today, flexed it out real good also, and took the clearances to the max, but nobody had a camera. lol. I actually chickened outa an off-camber hill climb today. I just need to look at it some more, just not totally used to the truck yet for chancy stuff. But this truck is so awsome now, just incredible. It's amazing how easy it is to work on now. I just changed oil, grease and changed that oil sensor vac thing everyone was talking about. Awsome. I'm still speachless since I got it. There are just no words to explain, except the big smile on my face. :D Oops, think I got carried away here. lol

Heck, you get an "attaboy" for the entire conversion and a special "attaboy" from me for showing your Buddies' head hanging out the rear passenger side :D

I wanted better aproach angle and reverse shackle also rides better at highway speeds. The negatives can be nose dive when breaking, but I really haven't noticed, doesn't bother me. It actually probably worse for the drive shaft, because of the axle moving rearward when compressing, but only time will tell.

Yea, I've hear PA is really suck'n in that department and I'm originally from PA. There are 2 good places I go up there, and I will have to just cross my fingers.

Your truck has to dominate offroad...

Nice SFA setup! I see you went to Independent4x. Say Hi to Matt for me. He bought my Black 89 Trooper from me and it's his monster trooper now.

Cheers,

I met him when he was still living here a few years ago. He used my Trooper to mock up some sliders. Def. a small world.

Nice! I think it looks great. Glad you got it for a good price. Lots has happened here. I like those wheel flares that everyone is getting.
