:cheesy: LOL!! Right, because rather than just PMing the guy, it's more respectful to publicly broadcast the fact that you are going to PM him this information. Next time, save the theatrics and just say whoever the hell it is :thumb:
Sorry... Wasn't trying to be theatrical. Just didn't want to break any rules. But you're right and I thought about that after I posted. Won't happen again.

Point taken. I thought I had read that we shouldn't post names of vendors not affiliated... Guess I was wrong. I apologize for creating an issue where there was none. 🍻

Yeah, you probably read it from a troll or a drama queen trying to stir the pot or from someone else who simply thought the same thing because of what they thought they read. It's a big part of why try to put posts like yours to bed - shit like that has a way of staying around and getting into other peoples heads. I hope you didn't what I said the wrong way.

You're probably right. I appreciate the clarification. 👍

Fiona came home last night! New 5.13s, new Adams 1350s, new Carbon Offroad front axle shafts, and all 8 Currie/EVO adjustable arms installed.

Initial impressions: it's really nice to go up a grade at 65MPH in 3rd gear. 😂 The ride feels a lot more stable and tracks a lot better. 👍

Great James. Glad you got your gears done. 5:13s are much better than 4:10s!

Nice practical mods. :thumb:
Thanks. I've been collecting the parts all year from various sales and used finds so I could get everything installed at once since they sort of all play off each other. Now she's ready for 37s! 👍

On a side note, anyone out there have any used but decent shape 37s taking up too much room in their shop? 😎

Aren’t there some coopers and slabs in the for sale thread? I don’t know how to post the link

Removed 2 out of 3 of her hockey puck front bumpstop extensions today to compensate for the more solid poly jounce stops. Hopefully the tires won't rub on the fenders otherwise I'll have to put one back in. I'll probably remove the TeraFlex rear bump extensions that are beginning to disintegrate and replace them with 1 puck in each side. It looks like that's all she should need in the rear.

Also received some extended brake lines this week. I need to get them replaced before the rear lines wear all the way through. I noticed they've been rubbing on the rear shocks since probably forever.

You want as much bump stop as lift, no?
