Progress has been slow lately. Haven't really messed with the truck in a couple weeks. Mainly waiting on parts.

The Sway-Aways came in, these things are awesome! I am still waiting on springs so they aren't on the truck yet.

I got the Eibach Foam bump stops installed yesterday, not very exciting...but it's checked off the list

Don't those bumpstops deteriorate easily?

We will see, they are pretty cheap and take about 5 minutes per shock to install. I don't have room to put a bump stop anywhere else very easily, so this is a good alternative.
 
It was a good day today!

OME 850J's out back, leveled it out!
 
I'm in South-Eastern Virginia, and would definitely take a drive PAST the Grave Digger, to see your rig. Dous, this thing is amazing! Great work. I've been periodically looking through your thread for the past couple of months, and its always impressive!

That truck came out awesome, and I really like how the suspension settled. Stance is perfect IMO.

Haha, thanks a lot man!

I was actually able to get the front end lowered a bit more over the weekend, so it has some rake. Although, the shocks are not nitrogen charged yet so I expect that to add 3/4" or so

It never ends, does it!?...
I've looked at your rig so many times and have gone, when I reach that point, I'm stopping. It doesn't look promising.
