    ...too much shit to list.
    ^Someone's been paying attention. :)
    Keep in mind...that's 800 lbs PER INCH.
    If you had 800's on each coil, that's 1600 lbs/inch at 1:1. Meaning 800 pounds of gear and the spring would compress only 1/2"

    That was where I was going to go next, well sort of. haha I was going to say that if you needed more you put an inch of preload on them and you just doubled your weight capacity. haha

    Yeah. Pretty sure he swapped out the rear LSD for an ARB locker. I think he is still open up front IIRC.

    Around $900 to $1000 for the ARB I'd guess and I think Jace installed them for him. Not sure though. He also regeared to 4.56's, I'm guessing at the same time, but again not sure. haha He had already done most of this before I started following his build.

    Fuck... I pay attention:facepalm: Pretty sure I knew that. I got threw off when Hritz mentioned LSD... haha I don't know why I was thinking he had an ARB in the rear when he was wheeling with me back in November...

    I think I was confusing him with Newman's rig. He swapped his LSD out for an ARB...

    When I do it everyday and can get into a groove it's fine. But on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have 8 am classes and on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I don't have class until noon and then I work til 10pm Monday through Thursday so I don't usually get to bed until after 11, usually after midnight. All that mixed with the fact that I just don't like mornings anyway. haha

    A funny Joke I heard at Basic Training, so Mormons are Latter Day Saints or LDS for short right. Well this Sergeant had to gather them up to take them to church on Sunday and he was going around asking for all of the LSD's and after a while one of the other staff members corrected him and said, "LDS is where you talk to God. LSD is where you see God." haha
