Oh, I have a good question for you. When you mounted those off roading lights to the front bumper, did they shine too far down? If so, did you come up with a better way to level them out some? I am in the process of shimming mine.

thx guys!
im predicting i wont be able to take corners at any great speed lol
my lights had plenty of room to adjust up or down. if they had been mounted back further they would have pointed down, maybe thats your problem?

well i got the rear brake lines fixed and found i needed front ones. picking up some fittings monday to finish them, i bought a 25 ft roll of line so i had enough to do the front and back. also picking up a cv axle. got insurance put on it friday, so hopefully ill get it inspected tuesday and get some miles on it for a review of the lift/tires

thx guys 
its still just slightly lower in the front, not very much.
replaced the front brake lines, had to replace a caliper, getting it inspected tomorrow. i went for a few little drives up and down the road tonight to test the brakes. they are ok, but im hoping i can get more air out of them, the pedal still isnt quite as hard as i think it should be. its very loud with the dual 2.5 in cherry bomb mufflers(no cats) with the 3 in tips exiting right by the very back of the cab. its a little rough, but not nearly as bad as i thought it would be for the size of the tires. they arent even ballanced. going to put some liquid ballance in them. my tire guy couldnt fit them on his machine. its severly over geared, but will still spin one rear tire pulling out of somewhere. speedo is way off, im going to get someone in a car to drive at a few speeds in front of me so i know how far my speedo is off

the exhaust exit on the same side, or both sides.. and how do you like it compared to say a dual chamber? I'm lookin to replace my exhaust again soon, on the cheap of course, but I'm not sure the best way to do true duals w/o goin to a shop... looks sick though. Is it awkward knowing that 6 extra inches is a body lift and not suspension?
