    yeah dont see that as a problem cuz of the time crunch. only have 5 hrs to swap uca's, front coilovers plus have to take them to swap out the bushings, aal and new shocks in back, possibly swap out headlights and who knows may even plasti my badges........ so yeah im gonna have the just get this over with attitude to a certain degree from the start.

    Considering we did the passenger side 3 times and the driver side 1 time in 1 hour with Will, I think Justin and I can handle it in an hour without him.

    Matt, the driver side still has the painting on it upside down!

    well let me first off thank everyone once again for helping yesterday.

    kyle if you wouldnt have shown up the headlights wouldnt have been even touched and who knows what would have happened to the badges.....lol

    brian as always wouldnt have even considered working on the truck if i wouldnt have had your help (cant wait to see the time lapse thing) also let your brother know that i truly appreciated his help as well, wouldnt have been able to even touch the aal if he wouldnt have been there to help. and oh yeah just rem now we have proof that you and i can do a uca in half an hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Don't worry about it! I did the easy part! I just hate taking the headlights out the first time because of that stubborn ass bolt but it was pretty easy to get to once you know where it is.. BTW.. I'm going to set up a new meet for the end of January/ Beginning of February so get ready to re-do your badges!!! I wasn't happy with the way the passenger side turned out.. :( It dried for too long when you did it so when I came back to try to make it thicker it didn't completely fill the lighter spots.

    We might still have the meet at Brian's because of his tool selection and Organization. I might get time when I get Friday's and Saturdays to get organized and make room for a decent setup shop, so we'll see!

    For you B-ham and I-65 guys I live a mile off 36 so all you would have to do is take I-65 all the way up to the "Hartselle" exit and drive straight about 30/40miles (Maybe more) till you see Kay Rd then it's gravy from there!

    You already rooted your Nexus? Did you over clock it or anything?

    Hey Kyle, if all works out right; I'll be running a 5 to 6" spindle lift. What kind of shocks are you running in the rear? I'm trying to figure out how long of a shock i will need with about 4 1/2" rear end lift.

    My rear came with my lift kit but if I were to go back and do it I'd probably go with a 14"rear travel just because I'm going to do 37's.. But if you want more flex with 33's - 35's then I suggest sticking in the 12" travel range.. But to get the size you need I would talk with DSM and let them know what you are trying to do and they will tell you the size shock you will need! I just recommended the travel amount you would want.

    I think that was Kurt suggesting that.. I'd be cool though! Or even a Sockmonkey Decal..
