    I have the same OME set up and love it. I wish I were in town today to help! I didn't know there were so many tacos on the site from nova..... I'm down for any future projects people have.

    Made it to my folks place in Chesapeake! What an incredibly fun day!

    Special thanks to Justin and his wife for hosting us all, and to Namyo for popping my off-roading cherry. I'm not a mall crawling bitch anymore!

    I've got a bunch of pics to post :) I'll try and do it this weekend.

    Mike - I know you got some sweet shots of my truck when we went out! Send 'em to me!

    got back ok. that was awesome, thanks for the help everyone. i'm going to try and get some pictures tomorrow and post them up. the truck looks awesome and i definitely couldn't have gotten this suspension on without everyone's help. i'm going to be more active in the "north east/va" forums so make sure to post up any meets in the area. i didn't know you guys were planning on going off-road afterwards.

    check back tomorrow for pics.

    Had a great time guys! Just got back from the auto-wash down the street, getting most of the mud off. Pics coming in the next day or two!

    I'll try and make sure all the kick-ass shots get up, and the not-so-good ones somehow have file errors on upload :D

    Thanks to Justin and Jen for letting us set up in their place, the tools, and the watermelon!

    Glad everyone got home safe!

    hey, whatever you did those hotdogs were pretty damn good and timed perfectly when we finished up with the rear suspension. i don't think we missed but 10 mins before we were back working on the front again. given the spring compressor mishap we (i use that term loosely it was more like smanz and my68ur8trd) knocked that whole install out pretty quickly.

    You? Offroading? :D

    Make sure to put the peanut gallery pics up of the install... :laugh:
    Thanks man, yeah y'all were rolling through the install, took less time that I expected to get the rear done. Did you have a hard time finding a spring compressor while you were out?

    I have no idea where I got those dogs. Probably Food Lion or the Navy commissary. I'll let you know if I find them again!
