    I want as much snow as possible in the denver metro. Love when you cant see the lanes of the road, seems so free to drive where you please. Peaceful when the roads are desolate and and everything around is white. Feels like a nice blanket is surrounding you as you romp the throttle to get around those going under the speed limit.

    Nah its not bad at all, actually really nice up the hill on leetsdale off alameda but the occasional shooting happens at the apartments off leetsdale and quebec ave. I love the new development at the old buckingham square. Its block to block around that whole area, some good some bad

    waiting for jace's schedule to clear up then i'm bringing mine into his shop because we also are putting in new front shocks, u-bolt flip and measuring my suspension cycle min/max so i can get new rear shocks too...

    seems like it is an easy install though..all seem to be the same techniques..

    raise the truck, take off wheels, loosen up the bolt on the upper ball joint, take out bolt holding uca to the frame, take out ball joint, and reverse...get some grease ready for the bushings when you install and get the torque specs for all joints...

    link to my directions..

    you got pics up yet of the ucas?

    For bigger tires (35"+) they clear the tires better.

    You also get a lot more control when tuning camber/alignment.

    There's probably some others I'm forgetting...
