    Yea, I just looked at your build page, I plan on this turning into a great overland build as well. I am super excited on what adventures this truck will take me on.

    How do you find the ride with the billies preloading the springs at 2.5 up front?

    I'm debating on 1.75 or 2.5....

    It's not that bad, it's a littl bumpy at times but I live by the 91 freeway in California where it's beyond bumpy.
