    I got out of the group buy because a friend of a friend was going to hook me up on a used camburg kit. It was too good to be true.
    After that I ordered a front.

    I live in Santa Clarita now. I didn't grow up here so I am sure there are some areas. But for the most part it's pretty nice. Though rent is $2900 for a 3 bed house....

    Any chance of rewelding your stock mounts and using superbumps or is that more trouble than it's worth at this point?

    I do have one +3.5" axle from dirt king I could be willing to part with if anyone needs a spare. They sent me a pair with my kit and I bought their fully assembled ones. I plan on building one up as a trail spare for me, but would definitely sell the other for a fair offer. Otherwise gonna build them both up as spares

    Damn I'm tempted but I don't know if these would be the same as a tc 3.5 axle?

    I just want to note, theres some companies around, Gator Axles is one that i know of that does custom stuff for the race/rally community, and when i talked to them for my focus it sounded like they can build damn near anything. might hit them up, a full set of reinforced CV's for my focus was only $350 for the set, and after lots of abuse doing 50MPH through ruts with heavy ass rally tires i cant break them.

    A lot of people tune a bump zone into their bypasses, just do that.

    I'd just notch it. Once the can is welded on you'll have every bit of that metal filled back in anyways so there isn't much downside. And you'll never see it anyway

    This has been covered before. Bumping off the lower is cool if you like riding your bumps while your hittin dem speed bumps in the mall. It will affect your valving, just tuning your bypass with a bump zone would be best. Or be a man and bump off the upper

    Holy shit... what part of town is that rent in?

    I went to Canyon High School. My Dad lives in Agua Dulce and I've swung by while on TDYs to Edwards, but I haven't been to Santa Clarita in 12 years. I've heard it's a lot bigger than it used to be.
