    torquing the bolts down will handle that. Now we are not talking about everything else that is going to break from impact...

    now if you land then turn your wheels and find a boulder to pivot off of in your turn, give me a call and I will start visiting sand :thumbsup:

    My bad, forgot about how hard you "veterans" treat your truck, I'll stick to my newbie thread where we would never do 60+ through whoops or anything like that.

    again, landing straight and no rocks...

    and if you love 60mph through whoops, you would love doing 45mph and running into a wash. hitting the breaks just to let the person behind you to watch for your fridge flying out of your cap, but they aint stopping you. Come out with us!!!!

    That name's EAF! With a bush hat and Australian accent, Danny could totally pull it off. The ladies would love it. His alter ego...

    More shit then I ever planned on doing
    When the wife showed me at Lowes how she wanted to trim the doors I just smiled and said sure. Now that I've done 3 of them I've decided I don't like it. Do I dare say something knowing it's gonna piss her off because I agreed with the decision or do I shut my mouth and continue earning brownie points? :frusty:

    I could be wrong and I'll check my alignment paperwork in the runner but I'm fairly certain I've gotten 4.9 out of it.

    All this talk of "alignments".

    I did mine with a tape measure, ten years ago.

    I also only drive it about 1k/yr. it does track straight and tires have even wear (beyond rock chunking) though.

    Look at that nice bow in my main leaf...

    Sam, we go to the same place. Who do I have to talk to over there? I'm getting 0.1 - 0.5°. My current rake is throwing it off, but the last guy that did it fucked up. And the time before that. Not the same place since Kelby & Eric left.
