Hey guys, I'd like to trade my Savage tube front bumper for your stock front bumper, any color. I have had my tube bumper powder coated in gloss black. It's in great shape, but does have a scuff on the front left side. I was in an accident in February 2014... no damage structurally to my bumper...

after driving it for a while, i feel like the C range is good for me. after i lowered the front a little bit it feels a little less floaty, but also i need to replace the bushings in my steering rack. that probably has something to do with it. all things considered, i'm pretty happy with my...

New Wheels!!! Stopped by Discount Tire today on my day off to figure out the mileage since the last rotation on our Honda Civic, and coincidentally my new wheels had arrived! I wasn't expecting them for another couple of days. While I was waiting for the install, I found out that my old wheels...

Ordered new rims! i know there is a debate over whether or not wheel spacers cause more stress etc etc... but either way i think the general consensus is that HUB centric is better than LUG centric when it comes to spacers. Turns out the spacers i ordered are lug centric, so i decided to send...

would you mind posting the front measurements now that you lowered the coils?? i'm having a vibration problem around 55mph... i tried lowering the front a little but still didn't help... i'm trying to figure out how much lower i might possibly have to go, but i don't want to go so low that it...

I initially thought about the wheel spacer thing because I kept having a clean section of the UCA. I had my dad push down on the suspension and turn the wheel and whatnot while I eyeballed it and it's fine. I got wheel spacers anyway because I'm still kinda tucked up under the limited flares and...

adjusted it down. still vibrates at hwy speeds. i guess maybe it is the lower ball joints... but pre-lift everything was fine. this is not working out in my favor so far. also, my tires feel super squishy and floaty. i guess because i got C load tires... from reading what everyone else said it...

so, i also figured out that i need to get wheel spacers. tires are rubbing on the control arms with very minimal flex. i found some just like spidertrax for half the price. set of 4 for $112 shipped. should be in saturday. still no word on my lower ball joints, but i'm gonna lower the front...

the lift is on! excitement has turned to a little bit of worry, though, because i'm getting a lot of vibration around 60mph. i first noticed it on the way to get my new tires. i picked up the truck post-lift, got an alignment, and then drove about 2 miles up the interstate to discount tire...

When I got these wheels they didn't give me the cap option. Said I had to buy them separately, so I just went with the covers. I might spend the money for the regulars at some point if I also had black lugs. I like the covers though, but I might get the caps later to be able to change it up if I...

I am going to DT this afternoon to get the same tires mounted up! i had been thinking of doing the 285, but seeing the 265 on yours i think they look great and i didn't want the extra weight and stiffness. the duratrac in 32" in C weighs less than my current 265/70/16. thanks for posting this...

unfortunately my dad's neighbor flaked out on me for today. :redbrick: planned it for a week, had the day off from work, and he bailed. i had a feeling that would happen. his work is always quality, it's just the getting him to do it part that's a problem. so this morning i dropped my truck...

my lift arrived!!! So, FedEx was a day early!!! got the lift today and it's like christmas! the quality of these components is immediately evident. it's just so solid! the plan is to take it to the local offroad shop on tuesday for the install. they say $200-300 and 4 hours of work. so, i'd...

Thanks for the heads up. I know they mentioned there was a difference but i wasn't sure how they were marked. I did get the extended rear brake lines. If I had gone with the regular travel Bilsteins I might have thought twice about it, but with the extended travel I figured better safe than...

since 100k last year, not much has changed except the head unit. i changed the emblem to white, then to neon green, but ultimately back to red. nothing major... just stuff to occupy my time on a day off. i think the only other semi-major mods that i forgot was the flowmaster i did pretty close...
