    Yeah, I get the advantage, I'm just saying that I am not planning on having my wheels flexed that much offroad to where I need it. That's all.

    Up to you, I'll be interested to see how it handles with icons and no swaybar. If it's good, maybe I'll think about deleting mine.

    I could probably hit University of Montevallo with a good pellet gun. I assume you're in Hoover or Vestavia?

    Yeah, I guess all 4 wheels off the ground at the same time doesn't count as flexing.:D

    You are definitely free to give it a drive when I get them on. I half expect you to be there to help!

    It counts if you root for Alabama during the Iron Bowl.

    Sorry Justin, I actually have work to do during weekdays :cheers: I dunno, I probably need to reign in my purchases, I don't think I'm going to be picking up any new equipment right now. Although a bike with shocks would be nice... no, no, no. Stop tempting me.

    And yeah, Brian, I was planning to swing by. Since you are only doing the coilovers right now, the install should be wayyy easier than when I did mine. :thumbsup:

    BTW Justin, I did tell a coworker about your bike, he may be interested; I'll put him in touch with you if so.

    He's looking to dump his fancy full suspension bike and downgrade to something cheaper.

    Hueytown has some nice places. And some bad places, similar to Montevallo actually lol. I work in Hueytown fairly often, if ever you need a hand with a project, let me know, i'd be happy to lend a hand if i'm not busy.

    got the toytec and yes i have the tsb so you HAVE to get the one that says tsb aal. it is supp to be a 1.5" lift but i havent put a tape on it yet to make sure. rides a thousand times better than my old springs and the 2" block did.

    i would highly recommend changin out the rear shocks if you go with an aal or any kind of lift back there. i put my billsteins back on that i believe are the 5100's for the rear that accomadate up to 2" of lift and greatly improved the ride. smoothed it out a good bit even with the now 5 pack leaf springs.
