    No doubt. I have always had the opinion that and actual set of coilovers from king or icon or fox are going to be better then the ome springs and shocks. Not saying they are bad I'm just saying for the kind of things we want to do you cant beat a coilover with a resi. I cant wait I'm excited for you if you need any help with install let me know.

    You can rebuild floor jacks. I had to rebuild that orange one in my garage. But same issues as yours, needs wood blocks to lift the truck.

    I'd avoid the harbor freight ones. I got one from there once, car was jacking up and it just gave out. I had only used it 2 times before that on the Civic. So thanks to that jack the civic hit the ground and HARD. If you are jacking up a 30k truck, spend some money and get a good jack.

    Or just borrow mine :)

    EDIT:

    Woot that means you are going to Sushi Friday then right? RIGHT?!?!?!?!

    Kobalt FTW. My Craftsman jack went out after 6 years. But it was the cheap-o one. I have no clue who manufactured the jack I have now, it was Tiff's dad's and he said he had it when he was a teenager.
