Firemanron, check this out.

Have a buddy put this on his '02. Looks really good. Doesnt give it that Jacked up 2 wheel drive look. Gives it a nice stance though.

Hey all,

I've been doing my research on lifts vs. cranking torsion bars. Which is better? I understand cranking the bars is cheaper and faster, but how much damage will it cause? I'm new to doing mods myself, use to just pay for it, but really want to start doing stuff myself.

Thanks

So if I were to crank my Tbars all the way, will longer shocks soften it up or is that only with a leveling kit?

haha, you got that right.

hey guys I appreciate everyone input. By the way mmstar, what kind of wheels and tires do you have? I really like them. Expensive or not?
