    Bitch.
    I give you a screen play:

    "The Death Of Brian"

    Ohhhh hey look I'm brian I have a rtt ooooh. I'm just driving back to my place after rubbing my new icons in Dakota's face. Hey look it's snowing on the pass and it's dark out. Agh where is 4wd?!? I can't find it! Ahh here let me turn on my map light. Oh noooooo I spun out.

    *BOOM*

    *CRASH*

    *SPLASH*

    Brian crashed into lake kachess that day. The kachess monster ate him. Luckily his rtt was recovered by Dakota.

    The end.

    Heyyy everyone look at me I have LT so I have a plush ride and can go fast

    *goes on some of Darringtons mountainous skinny roads

    Brian look I can go 40mph up this road in the snow

    Goes off side of cliff

    SPLAT

    *Hits tree and is to steep to be rescued, Dakota is now wishing he had a RTT so he didn't have to spend his final nights out in the open. He froze to death because of it.

    The end

    Are you guys talking about having the little selector switch illuminated? Reaaaaallly? It's one of those nice to have, not at all necessary things. If you can't find it if it's not lit up, you probably have a hard time finding pedals and gear shifter at night too..

    Ok guys I just finished talking to Total Chaos and DSM. I think I finally got my coilovers figured out :yay:

    So Total Chaos told me that King makes a custom travel coilover for the +2 kit. I guess an 8" travel shock doesn't work perfect with it. Anyways it comes with resis and is custom valved for the kit. So then I talked to DSM and they told me I could get whatever spring I want put on it and the price is $1425 for the pair.

    I'm thinking I will go with a 16" 650 lb coil since I will have a full plate bumper and winch. They also told me that it would be running approximately 2.5" of lift. I'm trying to determine if cranking that up a little would create too much preload and defeat the purpose of LT? I'm trying to build a nice, flexy suspension with a lot of articulation for crawling. Think I could go 600 lb or would that be stupid?

    The reason I decided to go with King is because of the progressive valving. That seems like the proper application for the rocks compared to icon. What's everyones opinion here? I'm sure anything will be better than my current setup hahaha :eek: :laugh:
