    I would say no also. Let me know if you have any issues getting the bushings out to put the new ones in. I have a press that should work if you do.

    I'm going to have some Icon billet UCAs for sale after this weekend. Will want to check out the heim joints in them after they are off first.

    The truck handled the washboard roads awesomely! Took it off on some mild trails and it soaked up the uneven terrain like nobody's business! Not only does it look great, but it truly rides even better! I can tell you that we are going to enjoy the GA Traverse in this truck.

    So Brian's mod day has been pushed back to when you are coming up there? Hopefully I'll have my Victory rack by then!

    Now you both will know why they refer to mall crawlers and the speed bumps!

    That's with about 300lbs in the back too. I almost went with the medium duty springs, but totally glad I opted for the heavy duty ones!

    Was expecting it to be very sluggish but it’s not. Fuel mileage on the digital display dropped from 19.6 to 18.7 but I just filled up before the lift and driving back and forth to work it’s rolling hill after hill and even downshifted each hill before lift and tires. Not once did it drop to 4th on way to work though.

    It’s not as much as the pic makes it look like.

    Hello bama forum, vouching for my buddy Jordan here. I think the most evil thing I've seen him do was draw a penis in dirt on a TRD OR in PA.

    Also curious, do the folks from southern expeditions still post up here?

    @newdles Did you have any problems mounting your e-brake hoop to the spring pack? My cable was too tight to mount in the hole that Dobinson's provides, so I had to improvise, but I checked at full droop and compression and it's going to work out just fine.

    Removed the bolt from the leaf pack bracket.

    Drilled out the hole for the hoop and re installed on the leaf pack bracket.
