    All I can say is try to do it right the first time haha

    I spent over $200 for my add-a-leaf, u-bolts, and rear 5100's. And now I've spent over $1,000 just for the new setup that isn't even on my truck yet.

    If you don't find anything by the time get my new shocks, I'll gladly sell you my 5100's. About 12-15,000 miles on them and no leaks.

    Unfortunately they won't fit 2nd gens. You guys have a shaft-bushing mount on top, and we have just a normal eye-bushing mount.

    I'm doing the lift right (OMD springs) but on top of getting a trans cooler, getting my trans flushed, and possibly buying a jet ski trailer from a friend (to turn into a trailer for the quads, it needs new tires, and spacers to fit my 5 lug wheels on it) I don't have much left for shocks.
    'Specially since I'm starting my 2nd semester and won't have much time to work (I'm very thankful for the 15 hours I've been able to work the last 2 weeks)

    Thanks Brent, if you've gotten your other shocks by spring break I'll give you a shout.

    Basically. I don't drive washed out trails as much anymore so they don't flex unless its going over a speedbump or something lol

    So, as dumb as it sounds, I think I'll be buying an Elite later on.... Haha

    I just can't get over how much better they look with the curves over the flatness of the Relentless bumpers....

    So I'll basically be copying this. That's if Tim ever makes any more bumpers after this group buy of his... Haha

    I think it's the lights honestly haha Just means it'll be easier to sell when the time comes if more people think that.
