    I saw that post you made! I had a ton of wind Saturday, no damage thankfully, but man there was like a 20-30min period of an assload of rain I couldn't see 5 feet outside my windows there was so much water.

    I just saw a post by Lee County EMA that a tree has fallen over a local road. Ground is so saturated it doesn't take much to knock a tree over. The wind here was gusty but really not too bad on Saturday.

    20-30 was about how long it lasted here as well.

    Ill probably get a new one at some point down the road. Just not bad enough to do it right now haha. Want to go on another ride soon. Nothing too crazy so @InfernoChalupa can come lol. Gotta fix this weird idling problem first though. Going to try a couple of more things today and then if i cant figure it out im going to take it to a local mechanic.

    You getting Arrowshot's springs? Then you'll have everything you need for the complete lift! Can't wait to see it installed!

    3" and less you probably won't need them. Worse case, you may have to relocate some brake line brackets.

    No brakes is a bad way to find out you need them. It is an easy test. Lift the truck and see how tight they are. Mine were tight enough I was concerned they would rip.

    My truck is sitting at 2.5 in the rear. I haven't noticed any stretching of the break lines when i have been under the truck and it has been lifted up. Ill recheck though.

    I did get extended brake lines even though 2.5-3" inch lift might require it. Will be neat to see these springs on another vehicle without a lot of weight. Ran some of my figures for the back of my truck and I am carrying about 790lbs which is well above the 600lb capacity for the springs. Do you have bumpers etc on your truck? Post a link for an updated picture.

    That is sad. Very sad and sorry to hear. :(

    I wonder, much like I wondered on March 03, did they know about the storms, did they have multiple ways to get the warnings and did they do everything they could to be safe? Very tough questions to ask but I'm sure officials are asking/wondering the same. Until there are ZERO casualties in an event like this there is work still to be done.
