    Thanks; I am looking forward to seeing how these upgrades effect it. Wish I could keep it a little lower than it is; but I am still looking into that.

    Not even worth measuring right now until I get the new rear leafs installed to level it out right.

    No, I sure don't. I had a three way call with the body shop and the salvage company so I could verbally release it and really didnt care who they were.
    I could find out if you need me to....

    I'm hoping to be in shape to hit Tolar by mid-March as a shake down run.

    I jacked the backend up to work on the shocks today. I also measured the frame height on the front. Under the rear shackle hole is ~26", the bottom of the front diff is ~10" and the bottom of the axle is ~13". I need to double check those with a flashlight once I finish up the shocks and rear diff armor.

    Starting to look like a rig. :D

    That is just a month away; shouldn't be too bad. I just have to finish the leafs, 4.7 install, and figure out a solution for the front driveshaft.

    Does not look lifted or to have oversized tires.

    About as accurate as the media gets. Have you seen them identify firearms? I'm surprised they have not started claiming the robber used an M16 yet.

    It was because it was not a ghost gun. Those are the ones you have to watch out for.
