    Height didn't really bother me. Just wasn't using them for their intended purpose so since Phil was about to buy some I just swapped them out. Without the extra weight of bumper and such the ride was pretty rough and I got probably 4.5 inches of lift. Just weren't necessary.

    I keep going back and forth on it but I probably won't. Just make a standard one since I'm not gonna have a swing out.

    Gonna be selling the Blitzpro 21 inch bar and the spot pods. Decided not to do hood lights and blitzpro will be replaced with combo beam once Pelfreybilt is on.

    $115 OBO (shipped) for blitzpro with wiring harness and red "zombie lights" otrattw switch

    $115 (shipped) for the okledlightbars.com 6 led spot pods. I tested them and they work fine.

    Need to sell more crap. Got too much laying around mah house :anonymous:

    My girlfriend offered to spend Friday night in the garage with me painting it while enjoying a couple drinks :D

    Where ya headed? I'm out on the far eastern side of PA about once a month for weekends at the GF's parents' house. If the weekends lined up with a NJ meet I could try to swing the rest of the way out and meet a bunch of people. Pretty sure you said you aren't going to Rausch next weekend eh?
