    My neighbor sent me to him since he knew the guy for years. He said he'll actually give you what you want for your truck because he put aftermarket stuff on them already and because mine was already done he didnt want to pass it up.

    If you say so. Not familiar with all the demographics in the area.
    Atleast it works out for you.

    Interested to see where the truck ends up.

    The mods have probably changed since last update.
    Perfect let me know if you end up going and we can meet up there at some point. If it's too muddy I probably won't go either since I don't exactly have a ton of recovery gear.

    If you cut out coffee you'll reduce the shitter time. Cut out work and you'll have lots of free time for TW.

    @Texoma is it possible to install a 3 leaf aal with two of the stock overloads for a little more ride height? Im wanting to upgrade my leaves but am too cheap to spring for dakars right now, and i dont think id get enough lift out of just the aal with my stock overload leaf

    @MattCowsmasher have you had to handle any emergency situations while running the ATC?

    http://avherald.com/h?article=4b7725fb&opt=0
    https://www.liveatc.net/recordings.php (look for SWA1380 links to download ATC communications)
    https://flightaware.com/live/flight/SWA1380/history/20180417/1430Z/KLGA/KDAL

    I was just listening the the ATC and pilot communications for SWA1380 during the emergency landing they had to make after losing an engine. The pilot was an absolute ROCK and was so calm and controlled. Much props to her and the rest of the crew!

    This is why you should wear your seat belt in your seat on a plane at all times.

    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    Not sure how two overloads will work out. If their curve is compatible to stack them with out any gap, then I don't see a problem. If there is a gap, then there's a risk of them destroying the center pin. An alternative to a second overload is a block the same size as the overload.
