I knew a girl named Brandy once.... She was good on a brass pole.....while I was simmering in the bourbon.....

 

The last 5 pages summed up

 

I wish boss... You still haven't paid me for the prototype GSM bed cage like you promised... I had to put Katie on the corner again just to pay my electric bill! Jk haha but I am broke as shit as we cut over time out and straight 40s for a while... Gotta find a side job to pay for mods now haha

 

Your branch is independently owned and operated, just like the DYF branch. All sales and expenses are kept 100% in house as per section 1 paragraph J of the GSF handbook. If you have any more questions, feel free to contact me between the hours of "fuck off" and "It was just a one night stand, get over it!"

 

A bunch of chatty Cathy's lol
Current status: getting 2nd front end alignment in a week following lift. It was fine for 2 days, now it's got a hard pull to the right. I'm thinking maybe the suspension settling out?

 

Kind of hard to get over it with the twins screaming through the night... And not one payment to support these monsters!

 

I found Gid!

 

Time to make some extra cash!

 

Is there any reason to not do a shackle flip kit?
Thinking about putting the OME add a leaf in my dakkars, removing the bigger overload leaf, and doing shackle flip.

Goal is to smooth out the ride and maintain height. It sits perfectly level now but gets a bit rough sometimes hitting overloads since putting on the shell.

Alternative might just be a new leaf pack like allpro that doesn't have the overloads.

 

Superbumps?

 

Decreases the amount of weight you can carry significantly

 

Thats me as a baby. Haha

 

Black skin and all

 

Didn't know a shackle flip messed with load...
So to maintain load capacity, maintain lift height, and smooth out the ride, going to a different leaf pack that doesn't use overloads is really the only option?

 

Why don't you want overloads if maintaining load capacity is important?

I would put the Dakar AAL in and get some more forgiving bumps.

 

I think he's talking about the overloads being removed decreases load capacity

 

Shackle flip definitely reduces load capacity. Changes the amount of leverage on your spring as it loads/unloads through suspension travel. The more it squats the more leverage that it has to squat more. If you do it, play with the angle and length of your shackle to get your ride height, quality bump stops required.

If you don't choke on the price tag first....

 

See, I would show my wife these and be like "Well, I guess I'll just buy the 2000$$ ones so we can BOTH be happy". Then she's on board for the BAMF sliders lol @11TRDTX

 

Fuck. That.
