    Bummed I missed going out to shoot and wheel with you guys today. BUT, as I had a pile of stuff to do on my truck, I decided to do a personal build day. Started at 10:30, finished at 5:30.​
    New UCA's installed. Done. Took about 2 hours per side. Now that I know how, could do it in about 1 1/2 hr total.
    Delete sway bar. Done
    Remove diff drop. Done.
    Last 2 involved removing all my skids. o_O
    Relentless hood mount for CB antenna. Done.
    EVERYTHING with a zerk fitting greased! Done.
    1 liter bottle of wine. Done.

    Comment on sway bar delete.
    I was concerned about the handling getting wonky. With 700 lb springs, in normal driving, the only noticeable difference is that the ride is more supple. I did some simulated avoidance maneuvers, and it definitely rolls more, but not in a scary way. More like and old VW bug. Rolls, then settles. Tried some side to side maneuvers, and feel pretty good about leaving it off. Next few weeks will tell. Then we will see what it's like with the weight of a winch and bumper.

    Now to jacuzzi, then, BBQ pork chops!

    FYI twal... with 700lbs springs.. your front in will seem to feel like its sitting on bricks for a suspension for a while until they break in.. you have a number/winch on the front? i hope so, that would be the only reason for running 700's. i had 700lbs springs on my kings and man they rode stiff. i upgraded to stage 5 icons since but anyways... hope this helps on what to expect.
