    I wish I had not forgotten the DSLR for that trip. Definitely the most scenic trip so far!

    Were you able to get that big scratch out of your passenger side?

    For the most part, I'm going to get it professionally done after the camping trip. Full detail and wax. Oh and that polysteel shit... I guess it helps with fading..

    Just ordered Light Racing UCA's. Debating now whether or not to install top plate spacers with them. Front end sits about 1/2" lower in the front already, and with the addition of a front plate bumper in the future, seems like a good idea..

    Any thoughts?

    Well I have the top plate spacers.. So they might as well go on. I'm also going to remove the sway bar.

    Will also be contacting Eric soon. I feel a bumper and skids are next.

    NIce build so far man! I see so many of you guys getting UCA's when doing a lift.... yet a guy I know locally said it was not necessary??? You mentionned caster, as being your reason for doing this.... what does the caster affect??
