    Nice. I'm likely to end up with something similar. I plan to go with 12" shocks for ease of setup but if someone has an easy path to running 14" shocks w/o a bed cage I would be game. Are you running shackle hangers? I'm thinking of picking up BAMF or Archive for a shock relo kit and hangers. My current setup is All Pro Expo, Icon CDVC shocks w/ custom valving (25% stiffer than stock) and Timbrens. I'm only moderately happy with the rear performance w/o the Drifter so I think it's time to upgrade but still stay SOA.

    Thanks, @rob1208 ! I'm glad someone else knows how to find this and embed so I don't always feel like I have to in order for those without Instagram to find out what is going on.

    I see the truck #7 will be mounted on in the pic...

    Wish I could have gone! Sounds like some serious carnage on the trip tho... not Drifter related.
