    Wow man, looks like an outstanding outcome. Those joints usually don't respond well surgically.

    Don't know why they don't say it.

    I put extended stainless brake lines on mine when I got my new pack.

    Huh, not bad Matt.

    Doug I've only got about 1.5in in the back, I was crawling around there doing the diff breather mod on Saturday and they looked fine. Matt's probably got a better idea since his leaf pack is the 3in

    Well when The Truck Shop did my rear leafs they didn't install any. On the trail when flexes my solid line was getting pulled cause the lines were to short and they took the bolt out of the bracket which heldthw line to the axle. When I realized that I was like WTF. So I installed SS lines after that.

    With the older Yotas we would use 63" Checy springs or a Mazda pack mixed in and that worked real well. The built packs are about 379 before tax. I plan to add an overload leaf before I resort to that. If I do buy I'll probably look at OME Dakar leafs, seem like some people have used them and they seem to last.

    So now your dash display matches your B.S. HID's...... pfft, whoopie....:rolleyes:




    :D:D:Dj/k:D:D:D

    That looks absolutely awesome Eddie, very nice MOD...



    Shit junior, you better stay in the sand box with that pogo stick your driving around

    can you say "over sprung & under dampened" ?.....:devil::devil::devil:

    Me & Reckless were talking about your stiff ass springs, maybe your shocks, but like I told ya, measure the thickness & length of your springs & match results with others with same AllPro 10 pack leafs, then you'll have your answer Mike....;)

    Me & Mike (05offroad) were talking about how your rear springs feel nice & his are stiffer than a sumbitch even though you both have the same allpro 10 pack..
