    Yeah I'm really hoping it'll soften out a bit, but I'm expecting about the same feel

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    It's super easy. Just be generous with painters tape on the paint around the lights. I used one that comes with a buffer ball that goes into a normal ol' drill chuck.

    Ordered some TC cam tab gussets. 2 tabs on my drivers side broke off so when I get an alignment everything is fine on pavement. The moment I hit dirt and hit a rock my shit goes to.... Shit. @digitaLbraVo , you told me moons ago to do this mod. Haha. Se la vie.

    True story. It annoys the Heck out of me. I've got an alignment 3 times in 3 weeks. Dammit.

    I bring them a pack of beer each time. They ask questions about my truck and where I went on my last adventure and then I go home until they call me.

    It will be slightly bumpier with longer shackles. Helps if you can move the rear shackle hanger. Flat springs are hard to work with.

    Gotcha, thanks mike. I guess JT will have to be a test run, I'll either hate it or live with it till I find the right leaf pack I want. Haha

    Smoothies shocks can help dial out the harshness.

    I definitely plan on getting different rear shocks. The icons are great but I think I need a longer shock so they're not my limiting factor, that's how I blew one of them out a year ago. Or I can just get limiting straps but whateva
