    Just remember, I've also got yours ;-)

    Btw, I got my new Lower Control Arms on yesterday, they look great! I might have to crank my adjustable ADS down a turn in the front, since I think the geometry is JUST different enough that it "thunks" when I go over bumps and it hits its max droop. Wish it wasn't such a PITA to turn the adjustable part, but I guess that's the price you pay for the badass gear, after the price you pay to get it in the first place haha.

    I don't believe so... I think they make the Long Travels with the extra, but not the regular extended travel. Not sure why. I bet they have a mount you can weld on, tho? Getting a second shock isn't really on my radar tho

    And btw, I'm having Round 2 Offroad install my BAMF rear hangars asap, and I sprung for the extra plates so I can add a crossmember.... BUT, I think that's a little out of their wheelhouse. I think you said you were doing that for your truck soon right? Did you ever do it? And do you have any desire to do a second one for a homie? You know, in exchange for sweet sweet monies?

    I did. I also have spare DOM pipe. The 22ft stick of DOM was $130. And yeah, I can certainly do it up quick.

    I was very pleasantly surprised! Since I barely have the shocks capable for my bumpers, I thought it would be worse. Actually, 99 lbs. Of HDPE, nicely spread around the bed is a perfect adjustment for the Taco. Probably the cheapest suspension mod out there for a good ride.
    Going to have to roll up my cover more often to do some pickup things, but I will take that trade.
