    I don't think you can..I have never heard of people doing that. It's a longer shock..can just slap a long shaft in a shock and call it a day. I would think more people would do that if it was possible.

    I would do the LED lightbar instead of the HID hellas IMO

    I know but i cant afford a nice one like a rigid or something. So i was gonna get a blitzpro one which is about $180. The hella 4000s are way better lights than the 500s so i think theyll be awesome with hid's, especially floods or euro beams but im still not sure on what i want.

    I would only go LED if you need light with minimal power consumption. Otherwise hid's are more lumen for the $

    I would just buy decent headlights, build a roof rack, and put a fuck ton of cheap lights on it so you can see all around you :p

    Well instead of rebuilding my shocks like i should have i found a cheap set of brand new 14" 600lb eibachs on craigslist for 80 bucks. So i figured ill get the coils first since the pair is cheaper than one new one. :p also got a couple cans of plasti dip waiting to go on sometime tomorrow or sunday! We'll see what happens haha
