    It's highly unlikely they'll get it to me before LBL. But I won't need a winch at LBL cause there will be 40 trucks to pull me out of whatever mudhole I get stuck in

    So there's alot of recent stuff I havent updated in here yet and I'll get some pictures later but the short list is:

    * Ordered the Demello Low Pro bumper, estimated arrival is some time in April. @Tiff@DeMello was very helpful and hooked me up with the forum discount on the phone

    * Put @mwc273 's old OME shocks on my truck. Front end is somewhere between 1 and 2 inches higher, ass end is lower lol. I'm bro leaning hard.

    * Lift made my UCA's rub on the tires, so I got some spidertrax and installed them last night. No more UCA rub, no fender rub on the street, one potential problem spot in the front fender liner, which can easily be melted out of the way.

    * Getting a leafpack with the HS AAL from @presta24 to try to sort out the ass end. May also replace the super wore out rear OME shocks with something el cheapo like 5100s or something that won't be quite as saggy too.

    * Also bought a real hi lift.

    Shocks (rear) dont contribute to sag or prevent sag. That's 99.9% to do with springs. (Or payload)

    Yeah, I know that's the rule of thumb but you can literally compress these old OME rears fully with one hand. I'm pretty sure they aren't doing shit for me lol

    More bounce to the ounce....

    Have you had it up to hwy speed? Front shocks bouncing will wreak havoc on handling and/or tire life...

    Yeah I've driven on it for a week. I dont think the fronts are bouncing. Theyre a little stiff cause theyre 650lb springs or whatever but the truck feels planted. Also took the swaybar off, forgot to mention

    Update: suspect my rear brake lines need inspected/replaced. I bled these last fall cause the pedal was mush and its back to mush.

    Yay things to wrench on!

    Honestly I don't really need the rear brake. I just prefer it.
