    Go for it man... We all have to learn someday. I solely hate the credit rating bs cause it is a flawed system... You can have several credit cards pay the minimum and have (cough cough) good credit reports... But if u pay stuff off quick in half the time.. It doesnt improve. So just my $.02 from personal experience. Soooo lift it, screw it up hucking off dunes, whatever you want just pay it off. Its no other persons responsibility but yourself. Oh yea... We need some dam pictures asap

    this is what i live by. The only time I finance a want is if I can save a certain % or get 0% interest. That is free money; not 4%.

    Not if he's not doing the work. fitting 63's requires a little fabbing, and the CO's are 1-1.2k alone. Shops charge a lot and it would add up.

    I heard the sway-a-ways tend to rust, people call them "rust-a-ways." I personally would go with icon, fox or king instead of fabtech or sway-a-way but I would go with sway-a-way over fabtech.

    there are several guys on here that run SAW's and can contest to their quality. I think them being prone to rust is a rumor more than anything.

    I know Digiratus on here runs SAW 2.0's and he lives in Wyoming or Colorado (or somewhere over there) and has had no rust issues.

    I'm going to run some SAW 2.0's when I get the money saved up.

    what would be better:


    this:front will be fabtech adjustable coil overs with all-pro uca's
    rear will be 63" chevy springs with 14" extended bore billi's 5125 and u bolt flip kit. getting rid of block and spacer lift finally. 2500 ordered and installed what you guys think. this includes all the needed lines mounting hardware

    or: the icon stage two setup wth new uca's

    I loved my icons! Fabtech is not the same level as everybody stated. I have used credit for lifts and all kinds of stuff, it all comes down to being responsible and not getting in over ur head. Basically do it!!!
