    Yep. :D There is a lot different now on mine so it's harder to compare. In all fairness the stock springs weren't much softer if any than the deavers and this is wayyyy smoother than them. Now to get something in the front to keep up!

    Someone in the trailer park down the road has them. I’ve hit 4 of the fuckers and killed them. They like to hang out in the road.

    Waiting on the day the guy comes to my house bitching about it.

    I had a wild turkey in my front yard today when I got home. They usually come out around this time of year.

    I’ve got blueberry bushes and they feed the local wildlife during the summer. We get everything out here in the country.

    Speaking of skunks - Nothing like hearing a wild scream at 0530 from the lady while she’s about to leave for work and lets the dogs go potty. 5 sec later bedroom door kicked open and I get woken up with “YOUR FUCKING DOG GOT SPRAYED AGAIN”

    Yep, that’s my cue to get out of bed and get the peroxide, baking soda, and dawn to give him a bath at 0530 :mad:

    What? Have you ever held one? F250 towers are at least 3/16” thick. They are pretty goddamn burly.

    The problem with the ford towers is that A) the shock mount is wrong and B) there is no cutout on the side for a remote reservoir. Even if running a RR shock with the hose perpendicular to the frame and a 90* bend, it would still create clearance problems at full stuff.

    See what I mean:
    [​IMG]


    Not sure if King can make the shocks where the mounting hole can be turned 90*, but even then a piece would need to be cut out of those towers for the RR hose and looks like it would compromise the structural integrity of the design.

    I like the BAMF, but they are only designed for a 12" shock :(

    I'm going to need a taller garage...can't be parking outside in the driveway...ewww

    I love my insulated garage...no matter how cold in the winter it keeps at 55*F and summer time no hotter than 80*F.

    I want to install a mini-split, but can't justify the cost yet...we probably won't live there for a couple more years anyway. Once the cars are paid off in 2-3yrs we plan to save up and build.

    I, unfortunately, am not that fancy. I should have insulated and drywalled before I ever put anything in it but I was too anxious to get to working in it now I just don't have the energy to move everything
