    speaking of that, ever since we rolled..to this day. every time i make a left turn Jasmine gets all PTSD on me and starts grabbing the seatbelt pulling it tight against her while giving me the evil eye saying "i hate it when you make left turns like that". :D

    it's more the internal bypass technology that makes those shocks cool, than the cute fox tail sticker...

    far from brotastic and the only thing that was a mess on that truck was that engage kit BRO :rolleyes:

    cage held up 100% banged out the sheet metal and is under the knife as we speak. He got rid of that POS engage kit, cut the frame off in front of the cab, put a chevy 5.3 v8 in it and threw some beams under it. Shit is way bro with beams now :p

    alot of metal, small engine, decent travel.
    caged, camburg long travel, 50t leafpack (soon to be installed) light rack over cab, 5pt harnesses etc
    Obviously that's a weak spot in the kit. But I watched the video and it looked like it broke during the roll. I don't think it caused the roll.

    i typically don't post up in this forum as i am soooooo not technically inclined to argue any given points...

    i can speak to the kit as a customer though...

    i am in the 1% that never ever preps my truck before a run...

    i can prove that as i have broken 3 sets of motor mounts on my truck for not checking my nuts and bolts (outside of my pants)... i haven't even recharged my coilovers and bypasses... im bad, i know...

    my truck has had the kit for over 3 years now, and when my motor mounts are not busted, i wheel the truck pretty good through the Mojave Desert anywhere from 1 to 3 times a month... i have been known to wheel Barstow and Lucerne alone, which for the record, i strongly do not condone, but im a sucker for punishment...

    the truck has been hucked and almost rolled with no issues to the kit... at Powder Puff 2010, i pretty much drove straight into a small wall trying to get to the race truck, which destroyed my already loose motor mount...

    on one of our runs from Barstow to Stateline and back, i managed to hit a big rock at 50mph in a wash, that bent my passenger front wheel, but no issues to the kit...

    those who know me, know that my truck has 260,000 hard miles on it and the suspension has held up... just too bad the stock parts left on it are falling apart now...

    again, i can only speak to my personal experience...

    not bad actually... i found a bunch of shingles from other houses all over the front yard but our house seems to have held up...

    you're lucky you have H.O.A. over there... they had your neighborhood cleaned up really good by 8am...

    my block had trashcans and debris all over the street... couldn't drive through here this morning...

    Ya, we all got some broken shingles but everything looks good otherwise. I hope our HOA is on top of their shit, they're sitting on $1.4M
