Florida B.S. Thread

I did a 2" BL to tuck my drivetrain, including the engine, up 2", also by happy coincidence ( ) it allowed me to clear 36s.

I'll say this, negative propaganda not withstanding, a properly installed BL is perfectly fine. I've had several trucks with 3" BL on them (Fords, so unlike Jeeps and Toyotas, they don't show much frame with 3"). One of those trucks, a 1990 FS Bronco, I got into a fairly extreme accident with when somebody decided they wanted to be in my lane more than I did and bumped me off the road over the median into oncoming traffic. The BL didn't budge in spite of the fact that I hit a Taurus in the side so hard I had a piece of their plastic hubcap inbedded in my cracked lock-out and pretty much completely obliterated the car from halfway down the drivers door clean to the back.

As I mentioned the only sucky thing about body lifts with Toyotas and Jeeps is they end up showing too much frame and they end up looking goofy. A 1" lift isn't likely to do that, but my 2" is a bit borderline--my sliders kind camouflage it though so the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.

That's IMHO.

 

Thanks for the input guys I think I'm going to see how it sits and possibly do a 1" lift. My goal is to give it a smooth belly for sliding

 

My wife and I decided to delete social media back in 2010 and haven't looked back. She constantly hears it from her girl friend who is always mad at another chick for basically getting more stuff and she is always trying to keep up with the Jones'. Our lives are better without all the social media drama and I even scaled back on TW as it was starting to get just as bad as far as being a "time sucker"

Have only been on a couple of times in the past 3-4 years to search for information lol.

 

....just saw a Toyota FJ with the "police interceptor" emblem/badge on the back, WTF? Whelp, that's a first for sure, I guess everyone has thier own flex.

 

Back in the mid to late nineties FHP had quite a few bad ass interceptors. Two that stand out from Volusia County were an Impala that had a swapped LT1 from a Corvette and a supercharged Mustang GT. Both had modified suspensions, turned exhaust, and they were completely blacked out with "Interceptor" in tan script on the decklids.

Question . Is it required for ex military to take a conceal carry class to qualify for a permit. I know if you have completed a hunter safety course it is not required. Thanks

 

Pretty sure your DD-214 is good in place of a class.
