    Heard absolutely nothing but good things about that guy. I know in the Long Travel thread and the San Diego BS thread anytime needs fab work in SD he gets recommended.

    I just need to win the lotto so i wouldnt care about money lol. If i linked the rear id definitely go bed cage and long shocks to take advantage of it.

    Are floor mats a mod?
    I have AALs, and they were fine for about 8 months. Now when I have a load, the pre load from the AALs is starting to invert my springs in the middle.

    After an attempt tonight to break my ubolts loose, I realized they're going no where. Lubed them up good with pb blaster and they just twist/stretch. I guess I'll hack them off tomorrow with a cutoff wheel.

    well, those torch bottle and torch head are like $17 at Home Depot. The bad-ass clicker button igniter one is $34.

    I have a heat gun you can borrow. Not sure if it generates enough heat to help, but I use it for shrink wrapping electronics. I also have a torch :)

    A propane torch should work if you concentrate the head on a single flad spot on the nut. Don't move it around.
