    Great test run!

    It was tracking up and you weren’t sure if 17.8k was near its peak and/or would drop, so you sold. Pretty much like buy/sell shares of stock.

    You gonna try again? If so, what’s your timing strategy if you don’t mind me asking?

    I guess I’m behind the times. I still go out after work and do a few hours of back breaking labor and get paid real money in real life:pout:

    It is not just the extra travel though. You are also getting a lifetime shock versus a throw away. Better ride quality, fade resistance, etc.

    :goingcrazy: Need some help here I'm driving myself nuts. I need to replace my cam bolts and bushings. I have 98k on my truck and I figured I should also replace the lower ball joints. Now what's driving me nuts is should I replace the lower control arm with a new oem control arm with the bushings and ball joints or should I just save myself $300 and buy oem bushings and go with the moog replacement lower ball joint?

    With all the aggravation it takes to swap out the bushings and ball joints it’s much more cost-effective to simply buy new lower control arms.
    Ask me how I know. ;)

    Thanks for chiming in Craig, I knew you would know. I was thinking same thing, I could save myself possibly a few hours.

    You know, once you get to a certain point in your build, you spend tons of money for tiny gains.

    Honestly, guys on OME lifts, 33s, stock gearing, and factory E-locker will be able to do pretty much everything my truck can do. With bumpers and armor of course. Even then, the front locker would be the biggest difference.

    Looking back, I should've stopped dumping money into my truck a long time ago.

    No matter what you do, besides SAS and altering the wheelbase, our trucks are still Long, heavy, and IFS, which are the true limiting factors IMO.

    Sorry. Lost my bearings for a second there. I’m back on track now.

    Just ordered a crawl box, Archive relocate, 14” ADSs, & an N20 kit.

    I’ll be 40 this year. I think the world has officially begun leaving me behind.
