    I like to freak people out. The truck leans really far on turns. My mom was driving behind me the other day and I took a turn fast and she called me to say she thought I was going to flip the truck.

    Hahaha that's awesome!!! I do love to corner fast but I think I'd love the added travel a bit more.
    What spring length and # are your front coils??

    It was nice to meet you at the mod day Nick. Hopefully next time you can bring your truck down!

    Sounds good. Hope eric gets to put some more armor on your truck. The skids look good.

    Thanks man! I'm looking forward to the armor. Haven't had a chance to paint the skid at all since it decided to snow on us here.

    I gave it a lot of thought. I haven't really be stuck in a place yet were a front locker would have made a difference and everyone breaking gears and axles with front lockers just worries me. If I paid the extra 1000 for it. Id hardly ever use it and honestly id be scared to. I have an overland truck and while I do rock crawl with it. its not a rock crawler. Just isn't worth the money to me. I have plently of other tools I can use besides a front locker.

    I work next to a gear shop. The owner is chill and hooking me up. :woot:

    and honestly just don't have the time to deal with shipping back and forth and installing myself. I'm working 10 hour days with 2 hours of commuting and im camping or out of town everyweekend. The OT right now covers having someone else do the work.
