    Now there's a good idea. I was thinking of going as well, so that'd be a lot of fun. I could bring mine as well and an extra for someone else, if my wife doesn't come

    Nice Trucks! Mind if I copy?
    I'm was wondering how you liked the Billie 5100 with 884 setup for ride quality? I have a TSS so looking to upgrade but maintain or improve ride quality (IE be able to drive across town without waking the baby in the car seat). I don't have any armor or anything. Just want to level. All my research shows this combination is a great way to go under 1000$.
    Was hoping to get an opinion from someone who had run this setup.
    Thanks

    Morning!

    Hey there! The 5100/OME combo is a great way to go. Everyone who I've recommended it to has been satisfied with it. On your truck, the 884 would be about 2" of lift which will keep your alignment looking good, but you'll be nose high if you don't lift the rear. For that, a progressive AAL paired with 5100 would be a perfect pair.

    Couldn't be more proud of my wife. She's a military medical student attending USUHS, and graduates next May at the top of her class. A couple months ago, she got invited to apply to the Medical Honors Society which is a very elite group of all medical schools across the nation. She found out tonight that she got accepted!!

    ".....are picked not only for their high academic standing, but as well for leadership among their peers, professionalism and a firm sense of ethics, promise of future success in medicine, and a commitment to service in the school and community. By adherence to these criteria it has happened that one or more of the highest ranked students by grade point average have not been elected to the society."

    Check out CVS. They have a 250 piece kit, with a soft carrying case that fits just about anywhere. $12.99 online.

    Loving the look already man. SO GLAD I waited on the color matched.


    I need to get one of those stubby antennas but I listen to the radio sometime but could probably quit.

    I'm so glad you waited too. It looks GOOD. I just stared at that pic for a good 10 seconds soaking it in. There's just something about an all MGM truck that I love.

    I did my staring before I took that picture. I’m sure all the other people at the gas station thought I was crazy but I don’t care. Even the guy I bought it from thought it looked awesome on my truck.

    The more I look at it the more I need to do something about those steps. Will probably go up for sale soon. Seems like it looks less lifted with them on.

    I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to say anything :crapstorm: I think it'd look awesome without them on

    Been thinking it for awhile they just look bulky. Only reason they are there is for my gf but she might have to get over it and work on her jumping. :devil:

    How tall is she? My wife is 5'2" and manages well enough with the sliders.

    About 5’2” maybe pushing 5’3”. Might look for some used sliders or grab some cheap weld ons.
