    For a solid axle, spacers aren't a big deal, as long as you get new shocks that are properly valved to dampen the additional preload. But on IFSs, spacers are bad news. Ball joints can get maxed out by using top plate spacers.

    See this link below, it does an excellent job of summing it up.

    But from what Cullen told me it's a decent park with 2wd friendly trails with no mud because of the drought

    Added extra awesomeness to its original awesomeness.
    "Mosier Valley was the first all black community in Texas. It was established a few years after the Civil War, primarily by former black slaves. "

    Here? Any way to see their trails?

    Well, I think its time for a Sunday afternoon drive. I'm gonna go put some liquid gold in the gas tank, crank up some good rock, and go try to find this mysterious Mosier Valley.

    I'll report back later.
