    The drive before the ucas? It was ok. Definitely felt the stiffness of the springs but when the ucas when on, allowed more travel and now it eats everything up so soft.

    It’s honestly not that bad. Got use to it already. A bit nose high but that’s how I want it to sit. I don’t scrape anything anymore and have the most confidence my truck will get through anything now

    Hell yes. I'm going to be gangster leaning for a while but not a big deal to me.

    The clearance is unreal and I'm looking forward to that.

    Sure thing!
    These things are solid iron and I imagine shipping a set second hand would be brutal lol
    (although you do live in a good area to find a set)
    Whatever you do just hit them with some Rustoleum or something because they will rust if you dont

    But, dont let that discourage you if you find a set that don't look to be in the best shape!

    Mine are showing zero signs of wear and I only did 3 coats of the 2 in 1 paint/primer

    It’s my custom two stage powdercoat I made at my shop here in Vegas that I used to spray my wheels too. Gotta set myself apart from the rest man!

    For anyone experiencing driveshaft vibration, I just ordered a driveshaft spacer in order to sufficiently lengthen the driveshaft back into the slip yoke output at the transmission. Hopefully it'll go a long way towards eliminating the infamous vibrations that affect many of us. Whatever vibration is left should hopefully be taken care of by measuring the driveline angles and shimming/adjusting the CB height as needed.

    Regardless of what happens, I'll keep y'all informed.
