    well funny you asked. i am still running the stockers, i didnt have a socket big enough to get the pivot bolt that the LCA sits on, and my buddy who does was at work so i just cranked down my torsions a bit. it still rides decent, it bottoms out on real big bumps but it isnt to bad. ill let you know wen i get them actually in. im pretty sure it will be the same amount though but we will see

    Cool, yea let me know. I used Belltech's 2" drop spindles. I still have like 95% of the factory ride. Thinkin of goin a little lower but I wanna wait 'til I get some wheels on it so I know I can clear 'em.

    will do, i think i got bit by the mini truck bug hard cuz as soon as i lowered the arms to see how its going to look i wanted to get drop spindles too. lol looks like i may be bagging it as soon as i get all my bills paid. but that gonna be a while. i am thinking on getting one of those low profile vinyl Tonneau Covers and doing a blow through system into the cab. wat do you guys think? should i or shouldnt i? if i do i got a guy that will build me a completely custom box that we are gonna bolt to the bottom of the bed so now one can get my sh!t out. ill be running two 10 inch type Rs for a bit. i may get some mephis subs if i blow them up. i used to have a set and the would pound so hard

    I plan on doin a bed box. Probably gonna run 4 or 8 Type-S 10's. If I run the 8 subs I'm gonna have to rebuild the rear suspension. I was thinkin of getting a flush mount hard cover.

    the fiberglass one or the vinyl flush mount? and mine used to hit hard wen i had my 2 tens in some crappy boxes, that would be crazy to run 8 of them. have you heard of steve meade? he does some crazy audio stuff. heres his web site of the stuff hes done, stevemeadedesigns.com, hes got this great video of this girl that he made her glass eye fall out cuz his system hits so hard

    thats cool. right now im running a distinct audio 1500 watt amp powering just on of mine cuz i cant get the other one in. crappy buckets, lol the are so comfortable though. im really thinking about doing a blow through for heat wave. i may relocate my tailgate handle wen i get the cover, we'll see though hopefully i can get some money out of my dad for it since i just helped him with a window job. and i could watch some of his videos all day. they are so funny wen the ppl arent expecting it to hit that hard

    not sure, they don't show the headliner. the only thing they show is the 2 15K watt amps in the back and the doors. What subs is he using?
