    Just prep the surface with some alcohol. Don't leave any sharp edges and that stuff will stay on there forever. I made cutouts where the legs going from the sliders to the frame was at.

    Some asked about the drop hitch I have on my truck. It is a 14" drop hitch made by Action.

    Yea, considering it was lifted at about 5000 miles so about 82,000 miles at the same driveline angles. I'm good with that.

    I was expecting the Spicers to be more OEM, but after seeing them in person, they are better than OEM. The bearings are longer, the seals are beefier and I like that the grease port is protected. I am going to have to change out the fronts eventually and will be going with Spicers again.

    Dean, how do you like your TC LCAs? I know you have a LT kit, but I'm looking at just the LCAs for my MT kit I have so far on my truck.

    Also how is your icon remote rear shocks doing with the expos? I have the same set up but can't really enjoy it b/c I'm deployed and my wife doesn't say much about the ride of my truck other than it gets bumpy when turning or stopping, haha.
