Ueland and I got together today and installed his shackles (along with a few other parts)...of course his took about a half an hour to install...lol

Here's a couple more parked on a different angle....i think it's pretty level.

Thanks again for the hospitality!! the ride home was great.. I could definitely notice a difference in the front end (urethane sway bar bushings and new lins) and the rear felt alot more solid after the drop.

I need to find a faster road to really open up this truck on though... I have to keep capping at 80 and the truck just wants keep rollin till it hits triple digits...

Ok, so either drive to thomasville and take one infront of the giant chair, or go up 52 and get pilot mtn in the background, or go near down town and get a pic of the ***** building in the background... lmao

IIRC there's also a really cool furniture place of main in HP that has some cool Japanese figural stuff outside.. that could look pretty cool too....
