    I think he's trying to shortcut the process of swapping springs by leaving the coilover bolted to the bucket and just removing the coil seat on the shock shaft.

    Krish, you're just making things harder on yourself by cutting corners here. Pulling coilovers and swapping springs should only take about an hour.

    Ya. It's a sentimental thing. I cant get rid of it. I still have a lucky charm watch on the steering wheel my best friend put on at our first race. After he was killed everything has kinda been in remembrance of him.

    That's what happens when you realize there are some people on the forum that you can relate to with old stories. And the scene before it blew up into "the scene."

    When it was about having fun, not who has more bling on their truck. My truck was sketchy as fuck back in the day, but I still have some awesome memories!

    From what I've experienced in the past, you have a lot more fun in a stock truck that you can beat to death and still drive home over a built one, because in the end, you know you will spend $50 repairing the entire truck.

    Is your name Eric?
