    Neither, staying as is. That height also allows for 26" from the bed to the bottom of the tube.

    Added Energy Suspension radiator bushings this afternoon - night and day difference on how the front end feels. Much tighter feeling in the front end.

    You're not kidding. They practically fell apart when I was taking them off. It's incredible how much better the ride is after the new bushings.

    This may sound like a stupid question but what negative ride issues were you experiencing with the old bushings? Did things just not feel cushioned properly?

    Just saw this. :sorry:

    It felt like the front end was "loose" and would jiggle around on. Just didn't ride tight and felt sloppy, I would do this mod if I bought a brand new truck because I like the difference so much. Also if you experience any nose dive during braking the poly bushings have definitely helped with that also.

    Great build man! How do you like the 886x coils? My 885s are holding up a little too much weight! and are you running a sway bar?

    Thanks man! I am not running a sway bar. Definitely prefer the 886's for the weight, with the 885's it would nose dive during braking and the body roll was concerning with the weight of sliders/bumper/skids.

    Sure thing man. They're a little stiff at first but after around 1K miles they'll be nice and broken in. Just want to note I'm running the OME top plate spacer on the driver's side and it's damn near level.

    It's only going to get better. :D

    Learned some things along the way with this truck but really want to get back into a magnetic grey or pyrite after selling my previous truck. Going with a MGM/Pyrite TRD OR and starting with a clean slate as far as mods go. Plan on king/Icon 2.5's, Dakars, 35's (STT Maxx), full Budbuilt skids, Pelfreybilt front, sliders, etc. just going a different direction.

    Coming soon my friend.

    Sold Incognito V2.0 this morning. Have three trucks I'm looking at currently to begin the build of Incognito V3.0. All of them are MGM or Pyrite - stay tuned for the festivities. :D

    Quick question man, with your 5100s and 886s, did you have the infamous over speed bump goes clunk? Apparently people are associating the notice with a metal stop in the OME shocks. Trying to see if changing to 5100s will get rid of the terrible noise.

    Here is a video someone made of the issue
    http://youtu.be/Ezey0MHPChM

    Thanks man!

    You won't hear that sound with 5100s because they aren't designed the same way.
