    Probably won't have time to make the out of the way Havasu Falls, got my GPS route complete for Arizona, and Utah. Hopefully my plan to make it out towards the end of this year will be completed!

    Cut a 2-3" Gash in the side of my driver sidewall on a rock, now to order a new tire!! After hi-lifting the truck on the trail, @Jibbs was anxious to test out his new impact so why not let him after it!

    3rd Annual Red River Gorge meet was nothing short of an adventure this past weekend. Even if I have to get two new tires! Thanks @Breezy for a few of these sick shots!

    I kinda sorta wonder what your brand new OEM leafs plus AAL would do for my rear? Mine has the standard OEM 3 leaf with Deaver AAL, didn't need to replace with a 4-leaf pack I reckon.

    Or the recall hasn't been issued yet. :rolleyes:

    Yeah no clue. It sits mine about the same height as the AAL they did back about 6 years ago. It didn't change much. Just got rid of all the rust and got cleaner basically.

    May as well keep them if there's no difference in sag with the rtt and other junk's weight.

    Havent had the RTT on it yet with them. Also want it up 2-3 more inches. Tired of basically staying on the bump stops a lot on the trails with the gear loaded.

    Dakars and Fox 2.0's installed in the rear! Love the ride so far. Trucks sits much better now and even got rid of some of the small shake at 55mph some how with the rear up to par now. Install wasn't too bad as long as you have proper equipment. The fox bushings that came in the shock were a pain to pull out to put in new ones and also the bushings in the factory shackles for the leafs were a pain to remove to put in the new ones that came with the headstrong kit.
