    Nah. ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/222483029319.

    I got both a set of red and black because i couldnt decide which i liked better, and for under $15 why not.

    The red one that arrived are pretty much pink. So black is what I installed. They fit the 4x4 knob as well (as pictured).

    But your truck would have looked absolutely fabulous with the pink knobs.

    What's the general opinion on the different Rear suspension load options? I keep bouncing between Wheelers 1.5", Sumosprings and Hellwig helpers.

    I don't need a lift, just less squat when I haul/tow. I want the ride to mostly stay the same and I like that the wheelers and hellwig will help with the slight axle wrap I have. I am 50/50 liking the idea of a little extra lift in the back with the wheelers but also worried about adding driveline vibrations.

    the AAL wont really help the load carrying capabilities. you're better off investing in the sumo springs or the air bags
    edit: while you're at it you might as well invest in rear shocks too. or maybe just start saving for them for the future

    Word. I threw my gym bag on the tow strap. My buddy had the rear hatch of his Yeep open but I had him close it. When this & the shackle flew by his driver window about 18" away from his dome he was glad I reminded him. The bag definitely slowed things down.

    Throwing something over the strap is such an easy thing to do and can save your ass. People sometimes look at me funny when I tell them to wait so I can do it. I'll take the funny looks so I can keep getting them in the future.
