    Awesome man thanks, been on the fence about both and dont really want to have a shit ride. Dakars I have are getting pretty toast and ride went down the drain. Thinking worst case throw the timbrene bump stops to help carry the load if it sags to much

    truck is making some serious progress...looks good. I know you built your own uca's, did you build new lowers as well? love to see some pics of those. I'm getting ready to have a garage again in a few months and am thinking about tackling a set of lowers of my own, just need some more home built inspiration

    I'm following that as well, but he doesn't show or talk about anything on the LCA's. I remember seeing all the pics of the uppers during his build, but no talk of lowers.

    Will do. Only going to go stock length, but want to build something a little beefier and able to support dual shocks. And the tc ones for $1800 seem a little high. Want to try and find a set of stock lowers to use to mock everything up, or just modify and beef up the set of stock ones. That way my truck and only means of transport stays mobile. And speaking of which, if your stock lowers are just laying around, I may want to take them off your hands.
