one thing that come to mind... with 19" of lift... What are your driveshaft angles like? How big is your drop pitman arm, how about some pics of the steering set up? Are you running high steer? Also would like some good pics of the suspension set up.

Living where i do here in the San Fran Bay area,i see my fair share of trust fund mall crawlers, lots of individuals trying to how do i put it,compensate! The looney enviro-nazis here have most land closed off to motorized vehicles,so 36" plus tires and a pile of bling is commonplace here,often combined with a fair amount of hot-rod type performance parts, and stock 1/2 ton gear. On a positive note,when the trust-funder actually does 4-wheel it and breaks it,he pumps a fair amount of money back into the local economy to fix it, Capitalism works!

I would bet that we have more mall-crawlers here in Ca.than any other state. Between the SF bay area and Los Angeles we've got a pretty big population,its an affluent state,and lots of people here are a little too worried about beating the Jones's. Little Tommy down the street had his yuppie mommy and daddy buy him a brand new Chevy for his 17th birthday,then send it out for $10,000 dollars worth of bling at the nearest 4wd shop,so darned if little Billy's folks didnt get there baby boy 4" taller tires and $15,000 worth of crap to put on his $40,000 new Super Duty......Sad to say,but im really not exaggerating much!

Yeah we got our fair share of em here too most of em are for the dirt bikers and some are just for the people who want to ''compensate''. I like shiny wheels and chrome but it rarly gets washed enough to even look half decent. Its all fairly old stuff anyways except for the wheels and tires.
