    he is isnt he??? ive got a really good buddy that is as well, prob make paul mess up a pair of shorts if he ever saw his tool cabinet. he had the entire 28v line 2.5 months before they were released. but i guess when you have spent close to 10 grand on a brands cordless stuff you get an inside track.

    Error occurred for me trying to play it. I'll try again a little later.

    Side note: I am sorry to whoever I pissed off about asking for support from my friends here. Would have been nice if you had the guts to name yourself.

    Yeah, I caught that. It is amazing how obvious it is when you look for it, but how you would barely notice otherwise.

    2004 F-350...uh lots of motor work to go fast...er. Way to much to list. 2001: 3" leveling kit, ARB bumper, lightforce 240 blitz, 35" KM2s. SOLD 2008: OME 886s 90000 with dakars, LR UCAs, 5% tint, Satashi. SOLD 2015: Flooded and Gone
    okay...so i hit a snag in what i want...ARB bumper or full OME lift with 886 coils for the bumper that will go on after if i go with OME first. input? the truck wont be off road unless it hits the huntin club, tires are good for now until i get permanently stationed which is beginning of next year. the reason i am thinking of the lift first is because i noticed with 2 full coolers and beach gear the rear end was not sagging but did feel like it bottomed out on speed bumps. INPUT please?

    thought you wanted built coilovers???? seems someone needs to do a bit more homework before we can answer your questions..... not to be mean but there are numerous things that have to be accounted for, trust me i am on my 4th susp setup and it is quite expensive doing it this way.

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    yesh?

    good stuff. but I always buy whats best for the job if I can. Plus I started off with 1 tool and two batteries so I didn't wanna have a bunch of chargers lying around.


    No need for 28v line here, and I've gotten all my stuff either free or used on ebay. I've got 5 milwaukee tools for 200 bucks haha.

    i think i would disagree with you on that one dave..... for once i believe brian has the order better, full armor first then lift.... just my opinion though, and everyone has a different take on this.

    I did my sliders, then my lift, then my skids and sometime in the future bumpers. My lift is just so puny at 2" that you don't consider it a lift. Yeah I did, not sure. Need to get through this weekend and look at some stuff.

    Dave, you had some serious negative camber during your climb when both front wheels were in the ruts. For Bill, Justin and I, we all kept one side free of the ruts the whole way while you and Mat were dropping fully into the ruts and squeezing your tires together.
