    A speed bump at 5mph would rub.

    You have an operator error, not enough sense to run the appropriate size tire.

    My FJ coil and 5100 lift is too bitchy to lift my truck enough.

    Plus I need to do my BMC.

    I'm saving for some Fox C/O's. They should accompany my bumper quite nicely.

    Might go icon or radflo too... Not sure!

    Snoope- I went to high school with him too! It was the summer we had the 155 bridge, started at UNH, Sparhawk, and some shithole development in a swamp in Massachusetts. I think Opie started building his house too.

    Guy who bought my springs was doing the icons up front and rear w/ AAL. Looked like a bulletproof setup.

    Sure it's bulletproof but for the price I would rather go OME 3" coils instead of CO's. I've been skeptical about those.... What keeps it from loosening? Does your alignment go to shit over time because the CO loosens?

    Ok, now you have me thinking >>I park at Dover City Pit so needless to say both the UNH and 155 bridge were in my "back yard"...Ryan had UNH while Wayne had 155....the Mass job, where we had to move and rebuild the "turtle homes" or Amesbury along the river...both PIA's....????

    Timing is about right for Opies house,we started hauling fill and sand in at night after work...;)

    Dam small world....:cool:

    i wouldnt worry too much about that stuff, for the price of them, the company better have put alot of engineering into them to make them not do that. I would just be hard pressed to put that amount of money into those shocks up here when youd never use them to their potential.

    Yup, turtle homes. Place was a goddamned swamp. Never shoulda been developed. I remember they were getting ready to give Opie a job to run, he was nervous as hell about the responsibility.

    I couldn't see myself hanging around at Sev. I had a ton of knowledge built up from school and instead of layout I was humping hay bales in a friggin swamp.

    I ran a CO on the 95. The springs are compressed so much there's no way in hell its gonna spin loose.

    Bulletproof. Smart move IMO.

    In the end ya gotta do what works for you and the budget. I know I have a set up with a lifetime warranty riding behind it and that is comforting. It also tells me they will take a thrashing and beg for more, so you can bet for the money spent I WILL get evey penny out of them.:cool:
