    Not enough to have a build thread.
    If that comes out good, you may be able to sell those on here. I like the way it looks so far....

    Might think about it, but I'd have to find the time between work, but time is more plentiful in the winter for me at least

    If you mean the leaf springs, they look like Dakars to me but I could be wrong.

    Actually maybe not, I don't recognize the spring clamps on those vs the Dakars I used to have. Maybe those are the Wheeler's brand leaf springs, not sure who makes them though

    o_O Love it when people give absolutley piss poor advice on this site, especially when they give no proof of anything to back up their claim.

    Love my 5100's paired with 880's. Had them for almost a year and they feel as good as the day I got them.

    they did the job. noticed very little difference on the street when I installed my kings. but off-road, you cant compare. 5100s are garbage.

    but we all know that opinions are like assholes

    I'm on my second set so my advice is real, not that I have to defend anything or give proof to anyone, just my experience.

    Edit:
    As a wise young man once told me here on TW "buy once, cry once" @NorthwestCruiser (formerly know as NorthwestTaco)
