    I'm thinking a 5100 could work.

    Hey! I got em and I'm a fan. Although some days I do wish I opted for nitrochargers just because.

    I had em too, I know Bilstein can make good shocks but those things were super generic valving wise and rode much worse than my stock clapped out stuff.

    :notsure: They are softer than the generic white procomp shocks on my 92 pickup, yet harder than stock. I'm happy with them. Guess its all personal preference. Id have to ride in a truck with Kings or Icon to really understand the difference I guess. Don't see too many tacos with racing coilovers out east though.

    You can turn those generic white can shocks upside down to soften them up, they say you arent supposed to but that little bit of air or nitro displacement that is lost makes em a different beast.

    Eh, I hardly drive that thing enough to really care. Gotta hand it to procomp though, theyve lasted 140k mikes and havent gotten much softer over time. They were installed when Procomp was its own thing and made Toyota specific parts, not just jeep stuff. Had a set of their cheaper all terrains on it too, decent tire from what I remember and much cheaper than what they cost now.

    Why is your garage so beautiful?

    I’ve never seen a garage with painted and finished drywall, along with baseboard.

    Most of them are just mudded, when we bought the house from the builder we had to paint the area ourselves.

    Wish I had a tool room.

    I’ve been to seven different Pick-n-Pulls the last three days buying every single American car horn I could find.

    I’m exhausted.

    Most of those were in the PNW but yeah most southern garages are finished from what ive seen, a garage in AZ without insulation is just a part of the house that is unusable.

    Man, you spend $1.1 million on a house and they don’t even bother painting the garage.

    If you want to be specific, 1980’s to 1990’s Delco-Remy manufactured horns.

    They know some dope will pay that so why bother making it any better. Same with half of the PNW, some house layouts are so space inefficient but still pull in huge numbers cause they're in the PNW.

    I loved mine. It’s good as a disposable vacuum cleaner (if you need to suck up something gross and throw it away).

    All I was using mine for was as a dust collector for my sandblaster, which it was perfect for.

    I have since upgraded to a higher capacity Rigid shop vacuum and cyclonic dust separator.

    I would never buy it to use as an everyday shop vac.

    Neat, I always figured they were trash because I never saw one sell when I worked for HD
