    Morning everyone! Happy Sunday...

    Well, how does one reply... Ok; it seems like this is one of those topics that generates a lot of emotion- similar to oil filters, etc... I'd be looking at a setup that could be returned to stock if I ever decided to part with the money. I like the look and think the body style looks very good lowered.


    I mean, come on guys. I painted it ketchup red for you all, at least let me drop it down... :p

    I live near Kalamazoo, guy took an old commercial building turned it into residential. No outside space, pull into full garage, enough for 4 cars. Separate living quarters, rooftop deck with garden. The place is so cool, like his own bat cave.

    Not a big job just a little time consuming. The only part that'll make me have to think is make my a bracket to mount coupler up under truck so it's not hanging down and may just do that later

    I plumbed a house years ago on a long skinny lot similar to that. Nothing but garage on 1st floor, no entry door just garage door. House was up on hill looking out at downtown. It blocked the neighbors view from their house full of sliding glass doors. Things kept getting damaged. Concrete in sewer etc. If neighbor enjoyed the view they should've bought the lot.

    Good morning. Lot of smoking and cooking going on here today. Just finished a quarter pound of bacon cut up with onions and garlic and 4 Jumbo eggs over easy. Zero carbs. But feel like nap time instead of lighting fires. Heat got to me yesterday paying price today.

    Yep Kevin nails it once again. Also prechill my food and drinks before I put them in.

    I've had them knock my off road trailer back a good 15 feet trying to get to the dog food inside. Solution is to shoot them I believe. Some frown on that however. Bear meat after eating berries in the fall is pretty tasty. After eating rotten spawning salmon not so much.

    Blue cheese is fine for dipping anything. Ranch? Sounds like those hipsters that order carrots and ranch with their chicken wings instead of blue cheese and celery :p

    Many years ago my mother did taxes for people and one of her customers paid her in buckets of cleaned smelt. I ended smoking them for her. One of my sisters husbands and I one night after quite a few beers got hungry and started dipping them in blue cheese. Tasty as hell ate several bags of them. Even over the next 3 days as we burped them up they were still tasty LOL.

    It's just the purist in me.
    We restore rides. So anything "modern per say" doesn't enter the equation.
    Not trying to give you any crap on it. They have good kits out.
    I'm sure if you do it, it's gonna a look great.
    FOR A BAGGER... ROFLMAO

    Morning all

    Woke up at 0400, drank 2 cups of coffee, got shit done, now I am sleepy and hungry. Like Chris I have some wiring to do on the truck, I ran a 12v and USB chargers to the bed, uses don't work and the wires are just tie wrapped, got some loom to clean it up.


    But first, food






    Then a nap
