    I have dirty red JBAs paired with dirty kings. I don't like the combo and will be painting my JBA black

    For me it's just a little too much going on. I'd much prefer the sexy ass Kings to be the center of attention in the wheel well.

    The LCA should be white for a true murica theme. Though my truck is white so that's something.

    Yes I do know. It's good that you mention that so that anyone that does decide to cut the bolt should be aware of this.

    I just want to point out that I've seen a properly oriented UCA bolt still back out when the nut came loose. I think it more importantly comes down to proper torque and checking over your truck every once in awhile.

    Seriously why are people concerned with the color of their suspension?

    Back halfway out to where the rear part of the UCA was unsupported. By then the driver realized what was going on and stopped driving.

    Why are people concerned about the color of their clothes? Why are they concerned about the color of anything? Personal preference.
