    I have heard some of their shocks are rebuildable with king internals, not sure about the bumps. I'd look into them more.

    The ones (Smooth body shocks) I have had and others I have seen really sucked. just all around bad. Had a buddy get a pair full of metal shavings in a new from the factory set of shocks. This was a while back, maybe they steped up their game.

    had some time to kill earlier before I had to go to work (which I am currently at) and made my HID covers amber with some Stained glass paint. We used mine as tests because a buddy wanted to do it to his lights

    Couple shocks, some old tires, and a bad paint job
    Why would you think that was a good lip to hit???

    Clear photog pic though looks good.

    Edit: the hit was so bad you can't see the passenger because his head was hitting the dash.

    caged, camburg long travel, 50t leafpack (soon to be installed) light rack over cab, 5pt harnesses etc

    fat as fuck, cant wait till i can do that. hope you had a good landing to land on, a flat landing on that would suck ass.

    you need to make a build thread dangler
