    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Running over nerds?

    Shocks that have thrown all the oil out do this easily.

    From what I'm told is you jump and bang, slap, ka boom your pickup but don't chase the noises or cluster lights. Dude, don't get your shit stuck out there in the field. Do the maintenance. You dont have kings, icons, or ome. Take care of your stuff. You're smart and you have a good upbringing. Don't put your off road homies in a bind when they could be drinking beer by the fire. Cause I myself am your off road homie and wouldn't leave you behind. But I'd rather be drinking beer by the fire.

    Oh cool. So you're leading this? I'm down for the caboose. This sounds relaxing.

    Not sure who's feeding you that but I know where all my noises are coming from and have taken the truck in to fix quite a few things. Actually got quite a bit of maintence done on the truck last couple of months instead of splurging on aftermarket goodies, although I do admit I haven't touched the cluster lights :anonymous:. Appreciate the words of wisdom :thumbsup:

    Maybe yes, maybe no. My suspension matched my driving just fine. My spindles and other factors proved me wrong. Shot happens. Its who you're with and your own capabilities that saves your ass

    I dunno, maybe all that talk from before when you refused to take any advice from the guys who told you to see a mechanic and you essentially told them to fuck off when they addressed your issues you asked about.

    We're glad you finally took some initiative and took it in to get something done.

    If you really want to get back to that I asked for input on a couple of things & quite a few people on here, not naming people, started to go really over the top. I actually started taking the truck in shortly after asking questions but didn't post about it due to avoiding restarting a shit storm. So hey thanks for the input

    You asked where he was getting the info from, I'm telling. Don't get your panties all jumbled up now.

    Sounds like you, and the other guy who blew a spindle, would have broke SOMETHING no matter the truck under you. Severity depending of course...

    Shit happens. Someone's we romp home to "hey that's a new sound..."

    Other times our steering wheel fucks off to 180* and we are looking at the front end like "that should have hurt..."
