    Hit a deer last night...it's amazing how much damage they do...especially when they jump up and run away.

    That sucks! I hit one a few years ago. 2years later and I still I drive super paranoid at night. Constantly watching for deer and use my brights as much as possible (obviously not when traffic is approaching or a car in front of me). I live in deer country. One ran out in front of me this morning on the way to work.

    I've hit the ambulance hall and I've used it to push a Broken Dakota onto a flat bed. Things a tank. I fear nothing in my mobile battering ram.
    I bitch slapped a moose 2 weeks ago with the side mirror of my work truck if it's any consolation.

    Upgrade your suspension while your at. Having 200lbs slung over the front like that makes stock suspension cry.

    oh yeah it's all in the books. hopefully in the next 6 months ill do an AAL, billys all around set a .7??, maybe 2.5 with stock coils cause im only gonna have 265s. then after i pay it off a leaf pack, add OME 885 coils and the bumper. maybe total chaos UCAs too cause that's when i plan to go up to 285s. . . im a cheap wad, so that monthly payment is the only thing ive been able to put in the truck since ive bought it :eek:.

    I've always said why waste money? Your going to spend $400-$500 to get the billies and AAL. Spend another $400 and get the OME right off the bat. Or just get the front to begin with. Totally worth it.

    yeah i totally see what your saying. the order of it will be much more relevant once i pay this sumvabitch off haha. i could very well just get both the shocks and springs and just leave the billys at 0 and let the coils do the lifting till i need both once i do the leaf pack. like i said, it's just gonna be a little while longer. i don't work much in the school year, so all my other expenses take precedence at the time ya know.
