    Gonna do the UCA's whenever I get some more cash...things are going to be tight for a bit. I was checking out those IKON UCA's earlier today.

    that looks great man! I am planning on doing the same to mine except its a access cab. Did u do the 3in spacer lift that just is a simple spacer from the shock to the top of the holder or did u do that actual suspension with like the ome 884's? I keep trying to decide which one i want to do.

    First off, thank God there's someone else on the Internet who is able to write in complete sentences. Second, "I believe in the true healing power of the Texas Double Whopper with jalepeños" is now the basis for my religious beliefs. And lastly...good lookin' truck!

    UCA's are upper control arms. With tires over 275 you have rubbing issues when turning.

    I would definitely recommend this lift to any one who cannot afford the suspension replacements. Whatever you do, though, GET YOUR FREAKING WHEELS ALIGNED WITHIN A WEEK AFTER LIFTING YOUR TRUCK!

    With this kit from Toytec, there are two spacers that do the lifting up front. Relatively easy to work on with an extra pair of hands and the proper tools.

    Maybe in a couple years I will do a full suspension replacement and lift her up 6 inches.

    I am a technical editor at work, among many other things. It happens naturally. I despise piss-poor grammar. I laugh at people who do not know how to use there, their, and they're properly or then and than. Probably my favorite is the difference between it's and its. Cheers!

    Oh yes, and for those who do not believe in the Texas Double Whopper w/ Jalapenos, SCREW YOU...I'm from TEXAS! I WIN!!! LOL

    I suppose I should recant and add the coveted What-A-Burger to the list, huh!!!

    They don't have one close in my neck of the woods and I, all too often, forget about it. Bravo. Well Done.:cool:

    Oh yes, and gotta love the "Negative Ghostrider"..."The pattern is full" stuff. Hilarious.

    Thanks man, I appreciate it.

    I think my next projects are as follows:

    Short-term: Black out wheels, badges, and logo

    Mid-term: Satoshi and HELO lights behind grille
    Softtop Camper Shell

    Long-term: Turbo or Supercharger and exhaust


    All of this, of course, depends of how PepsiCo thinks I am worth.
