    Yea because of my ARB Bumper and soon to have a winch.. I might end up having to get a 1" spacer to accumulate for the loss of height with all the weight.

    2WD yes.

    I'm not sure how spacers work, but the Fox top hats are threaded so bolts are used as opposed stock top hats that use studs. I guess if the head is small enough it should work the same.

    You can probably crank out some more lift out of the coil over I'd assume. Especially being 2wd since its lighter up front.

    Actually spindles would be a good idea, then you could get rid of some of the pre load on your coils. Im no expert tho, and it's more $$$

    I tried... Not very easy. Lol. It's showing just under 1.5" of thread, which is supposed to be 3" lift.

    With the spindles I'll have 0 thread showing and will probably ride very plush.

    Just Installed front & rear kenwood kfc-1665s 6 1/2 coaxial speakers i got from crutchfield. Came with speaker adapters for free; not bad.
    Ran it on my kenwood DNX890HD head unit (22watts rms) and it sounded like crap
    Stock speakers sounded better!
    I Wired up a spare amp I had and it sounds really, really good. I'm shocked how good these cheap speakers sound.

    Yes.
    I was required to add another 2M/70Cm Dual Band Antenna because of the added functionality on the Icom IC-706 Mk.II G I installed yesterday.

    This brings the total number of Non-Factory antennas added to my mobile antenna farm up to six.
    2x 2m 1/4 wave on the roof
    1x 70cm 1/4 wave on the roof
    1x Diamond SG-7700 dual band on the passenger's side tool box
    1x HF Whip, and Wolf River Coil on the middle of the tool box
    1x CB Antenna on the driver's side tool box.

    Give me some money so I can fill in this info
    My son learned how to do paracord stuff, and he's wrapping and making everything. The dogs even have paracord collars. Must be addictive

    I am more of a component fan than co ax. Also could have something to do with the tunability of your deck.

    image.jpg Got my sliders from BAMF delivered last weekend and painted them up before install.

    Took me 2 cans of self etching primer and 4 cans of duplicolor bed coating. From cleaning to priming to painting, the job took about 3 hours. Put a final coat on this morning and they are ready to be welded on.
