    Got the RUF pack installed. They ride great, lowered the front a little, and flex great. Now I need to trim the fenders because it rubs in the front BAD, and i've got to put a spacer on the drivers side. It leans like a mofo.

    Sweet. Set up some bumpstops or they won't last long. Does your driveshaft still have plenty of travel? I have a d/s spacer you can have if needed.

    Looks good, those should work great this wheelin season. How soft is that 4 leaf pack, was debating on making mine a 5 or 6 leaf pack.

    Not soft but not firm. If you plan on running larger tires I would make it 5 or 6

    Uwharrie opens back up 3/29. Only about a month away. Time flies, dunnit?

    We should try to hit the Gulches or maybe Windrock at some point. Not sure you're gonna want to drive the Welfare Caddy that far though.

    And Andy, you should bring yo' ass to Windrock as well.

    Yes time flies, still got some loose ends to tie up before then. I would drive it to Gulches I reckon if we did a weekend trip. I would love to go to Windrock again, Gonna need a truck/trailer to take her up though.

    I was supposed to wheel Gulches this past Sunday, but everything went FUBAR literally seconds after I pulled into the park. If y'all decide to go I would love to go with. It is only a few hours from me and I am pissed I didn't get to ride last weekend. The park was a disaster though and I am really happy I didn't stay.
