    Rob have you seen this clip for BF3? Man I tried playing COD today and I sucked! I haven't played it in awhile...think I'm going to go to BF3..played it last week and I enjoyed it. Maybe because it was something new.

    Those fake bead locks just pop off. Thats a good deal though. Even with a 3inch lift you would have some cuttin to do if you ever take it off road.

    I'm interested to see in person what some of these guys rolling 35's+ have done with their front end. My shit rubs like crazy and I'm sick of it.

    Yeah I want to do the same then weld a plate around it to add support. I want to be able to still change out the bushing later in its life though. Only reason they are so long is to prevent the tire from entering the cab in a head on crash.

    I'm willing to cut it off and move it further back on the frame, I already have sliders welded on and I'm sure anything that i build will be as strong or stronger than what's already there.

    This mornin I threw in my 1/2" toytec spacers that have been sitting in my garage for over a year, and some 1" tapered blocks (probably add-a-leaf at some point). Gained almost 1" up front and 1.25" in back. Still rides and performs decently.

    okay, if you wanna see. It's not too impressive, I just wanted to gain some more clearance for the MT/Rs. Still gonna have to trim most likely, and chop/weld the body mount at some point.

    *Bonus: My squeaky leafs have subsided as of now. I'm sure they'll be back though.

    They're not bad at all IMO. I got 'em cheap from Metaltech. I haven't had to test their "adjustability" yet, but I'm guessing I will if I mount those 285s on my stock 17s (7.5" wheel w/ 5.5"BS). We'll see how it goes. No complaints though, bushings are good, sealed ball joint is a plus, removing the long main bolt can be tricky though.

    Had to remove the battery, and bend the fender out. The worst part was getting my wrench/sockets to fit without getting pinned against the fuel lines.

    Damn I just took a ball hammer to the fender and it came right out. After 20K (half of which is in nasty crap) mine are starting to squeak a lot. Does your's have the new bushings?
