    PLUS THE WEIGHT! That my my deciding factor for tube vs plate. It's not like I plan on plowing into everything I see so I'm not as concerned with the less "beefy" nature of the tube. Still offers far better protection, better approach angles and a place for a winch and looks boss. But doesn't weigh down the front needing heavy coils or add 300 pounds of steel to kill my already bad mpg and power.

    Wiring the switches for that compressor and locker have been a pain in the ass... So I thought the blank fuse slots under the dash had power, apparently not and the add a circuit fuse thing i bought is apparently faulty as well cuz I couldn't get it to work for nothing. I ended up splicing the add a circuit that is already there for the piaa lights on the bull bar. Right before I left for work I got the compressor to run but the lights on the switches were acting weird I think. The light on the compressor switch stayed off (whether the head lights were turned on or off) even when I flipped it on until the compressor was done running. I didn't try the locker yet.

    Oh yeah. I forgot to mention Mike. I don't know if you have any vibes but the 4.88's made mine worse. Luckily I only have vibes at like 3 mph and below so I only feel it on take off and right before I come to a stop. Although I did add Adam's carrier bearing drop kit so that may have had an effect but my make shift carrier bearing didn't effect the vibes prior to the gears.

    No that is where the road noise on the freeway is coming from. haha

    Besides that take off vibe is way to strong to be from just the knobs on the tires. haha Maybe if I was running tracks from a tank;)

    Huh. I guess it is possible, but they got stronger after the regear. They were barely noticeable before the regear.

    Speaking of my sound system. So that violin dubstep song mark put up pounds in my car. I found a whole shit load of dubstep and made a cd for my car. I was driving to the dealership to get some fipg sealent from Brant while listening to that violin song. I was looking at a car in front of me and i was thinking "i need to wash my windshield" It wasn't until the song stopped playing that i realized my window was clean. The subs were hitting so hard they were actually blurring my vision a little. Haha. It was ridiculous. Some of the other dubstep songs on that cd will do it too.
