haha alright
when you get some bags on your **** than you can talk to me bout i need to bag the back

lurker
Sep 11 2009, 07:06pm
you do need to bag the back, it looks weird being half bagged half static, and i dont want bags, dont feel like cutting the **** out of a perfectly good truck

if i go lower like i plan, its gonna be static all the way. dreambeams + drop coils for the front with flipped hangers and a flipkit in the back for 5/7. gonna need carrier bearing shims for the pinion angle too

Nice truck man. The OHC looks like mine, except i wrapped the center section in black tweed to compliment the white paint.
