    Always, but I do ask that you don't make direct eye contact with the camera.

    It really takes away from the realism.

    I actually went this route in a pinch (Damn Rebel OR gave me Kings with the wrong springs and had to swap). Ended up working out but I was sketch the whole time

    Just getting used to the 700's. The ride isn't bad, but I feel way more small bumps in the road than with the 600's. I had them revalved at Rock and Road with some helpful valving advice from @jberry813. Felt better after installing the skids last weekend and tested them out on a 750 mile trip last weekend. Drove my work truck Dakota (with brand new struts) around for a few days, got into the Tacoma tonight and it felt like a Cadillac. But I'm still debating whether I should have gone with 14" or 15" 650's.

    It worked! A little stiff, but the oscillations are gone! Even with the heavy ass camper. Did some 45-50 mph washboard roads at Carrizo Plain last weekend and the tires stayed on the ground. Smooth controlled ride. Haven't had the rears revalved yet, so that still moderately sucks. Debating whether to revalve, upgrade now (2.5" resis), or wait and do 12" shocks with the BAMF relocate bracket. Probably revalve for now. Thanks again.

    More shit then I ever planned on doing
    I need to do a little home work before I just swap springs. I wanna make sure the valving in current (600) setup up will work ok with the 700 springs. When I bought them I was told I get one free valving if needed.
