    I run the Currie 9+ Fluid since I have a Currie Ford 9' rear end. But there are other options also

    I'm assuming budget reasons for sticking to a bolt in style coilover rather then cutting out the coilbucket and running something bigger? Or just not finished?

    Anyone in those back seats is going to be safe, that's for sure! Hope they've never been to prison though or they may have flashbacks of being in a cell! LOL

    No, Class 2000 is Unlimited LeafSpring. Must have steel cab and steel doors only. Suspension can be anything as long as Leafs are in back. I have a J-Arm for example in my class 2000 truck.
    SCORE & BITD has class 7100 which is more of a Limited Leaf sprung class now. (Motor Limits/ suspension spec limits etc..). But most organizations like SNORE and MORE now adopted class 2000 as an unlimited Leafsprung class. Kind of like class 1400 Now. Run what you bring.
    Class 1400 is Linked trucks with Steel cab and doors with unlimited suspension and motors. But must have steel cab and doors is the ONLY requirement. But that class has turned super crazy expensive mini TT with dudes all running LS 550 HP motors and $100,000 in to their trucks. Not like good old MDR days when guys like Bonzen / Dan Vance would show up with a 6 Cyl. Toyota and handle business!

    Ryan actually recently did some work on my truck. He did my carrier bearing for me. Didn't notice any increased vibrations. Some went away from the stock one being blown.

    Kit like said above uses a short body 10" in the stock coilbucket, anthony wanted to keep it in the coilbucket to emphasize the "bolt on" race kit he sells so people can see its capabilities, its gona be plenty re-inforced so im not worried about it. Staying leaff sprung out back to hopefully race in a year or 2 class 2000/7100 once some other things get done to it

    Posted why the stock coilbucket in the post above. But the coilbuckets gona be reinforced more, also the engine cage isnt done. Itll have a kicker tube off a tube not yet placed on the engine cage landing right on the cb and be gusseted. Fronts also going to have door bars like the rear, just not installed yet.

    Just to clarify too, 7100 in BITD doesn't need coil buckets either and the UCA mounts can be modified but read the rule book before going too crazy if that's a class you're into. Jprich's truck is not on the stock UCA pivit points but it is in the stock UCA pivot location. There's a difference... We're 100% legal with coilovers and our UCA's. His lowers are in the stock mounting pivots.

    Makes sense though if it's being used as a marketing tool with the coil buckets. MCM Matt probably would've loved us to have done that too but well... We didn't... LOL

    We'll see. I'm so deep into this pos already and the rebuild has barely started haha. If it goes as a whole sweet, but if everyone wants me to part it out I may say screw it and keep the front. I need the $ from this to help with the new one.... Only time will tell brotha
