    You can adjust the victory rack as well probably about a half inch depending on which way you go.

    Thanks yall, it looks like the cross bars do sit above the shark fin. I just drove my truck out of the garage and I've got plenty of clearance, I'm guessing 8"-9" between shark fin and bottom of garage door.

    It was full of wheels/tires and truck parts. I sold the wheels/tires and threw all the truck parts in the bed of my silver truck! lol My wife will be happy to know she can park her 4R in the garage now!

    Decided to install the OME CB drop kit, to see if I could address the slight deceleration vibes at low speed.

    I think you're old enough to remember these old school creepers! lol Doesn't feel too good when you roll over a finger with these casters, but they are smooth and slick as glass! This one belonged to my father in law, who passed away from cancer back in 2017, so it has sentimental value to me.

    Now time to drive it and see if it eliminates the deceleration shudders...

    Well, I'll drive it in the morning and see if it gets rid of the vibes. Jeannie says she can't feel anything, but she doesn't drive this truck every day. It's really not that bad, but I know it's there. It's only when braking or decelerating below 30mph. Feels like rolling on some slight rumble strips.

    Some here asked me about the agent orange title, but it's not due to the color of my truck, it's for my father. He was a chopper pilot for the South Vietnamese army and was exposed to agent orange in the late 60s. He has full blown Parkinson's disease today because of it. Just bringing some awareness to the Agent Orange Health Club.

    Yeah, I guess if this CB drop doesn't eliminate it completely, then I'll just live with it!

    Yes Sir I used one just like it in the 80s when I did custom paint and body work.

    Evidently I have a gem, because they don't make these type casters for creepers anymore.

    Nostalgia! I have a regular modern day creeper, but it doesn't roll half as smooth as this old one does!

    I don’t know if it helps but I did the fb drop along with the diff drop. I don’t have any vibration when braking. I just put them on before taking the truck of the jack stands. I figured it was cheep enough just go ahead and do it.
