    Sorry for the rotated pics. So those numbers look good?

    Just got back from the dump. Likely a 200 lb load, maybe a little more. Maybe it's my imagination but it seems it is not dragging like it was. Seems to roll easier. I'm going to get under it and grease the drive shaft joints too.

    I had a couple chances to open it up too. Drives freakin' perfect. No driveline vibes at any speed. All the way up to...........can't disclose that.

    So I want to drive it a lot in the next two days to really be able to review the results but preliminary tests are very favorable! :thumbsup:

    You make me nervous rob! But yes those numbers are exactly what you want. Glad to hear there’s no vibes!

    Oh yea, so when you go to the dump, you have to go through a check point. There were two guys today, younger. They liked the devil horns and the tonneau. Asked about the #RandyFab decal! Said there's a guy there that goes by the same name. I said there is only one and ours is the original LOL. They said "ohhhh, this is the Chesapeake Bay Edition". LOL

    As I was pulling away I heard the one say "that's my dream truck".

    That was a mild launch. I'll get some better ones. No need to worry about me yet Randall! :thumbsup:

    It’s always a good feeling when someone drools over your truck a bit!!! I love when people ask me questions about it.

    My lift is finally completed. Thank you @EatSleepTacos and the lair for the suggestions.

    Gained 3" in the front and 2.5" in the rear. I freaking love it.
