    How do they feel? Now all you have to do is relocate them shocks to the inside of the axle so you can flex out the way those leafs should flex.

    Anything can be done with a welder :D just weld shock mounts to the axle and add a cross-member between the frame rails.

    I'm doing mine on Saturday and I'm sure this can be done on a 2nd Gen as well.

    Might eventually do shackle flip plus shackles with longer travel shocks to flex the rear more.

    I'm on my 6th set of headlights and every one of them fogged including to stock oem ones. Kind of sucks. I just change my headlights a lot because I hate the fogging.

    Edit: I have BHLM lights in right now but the passenger one is fogged :(

    Kevin its probably those rubbber seals on the back around the bulb. I had that problem with my stock lights after slitting those to fit my hids.

    Why would that be it on a stock set of lights. I only slit one pair and they were trashed a long time ago.

    I'm running stock bumps. They worked before I got my new leaf pack and shocks. I have to re-test now and possibly upgrade.
