thanks for the complements.
jdap- me too, then i said to my self "self, heck with it, get a six" lol, i like how it rides, better than before, and i dont even have the shocks in yet. well anythin would be better than a cracked leaf and front springs that were shot, they sagged bad, it was more like a 8 or 9 lift in front. just be ready to get an alignment asap, my tires angled in toward eachother quite bad after the lift

Yeah, it lost ALL functionality but it was a BLAST to drive around in. I kick myself in the butt every day for letting my better half take over and tell me that we needed a truck to USE. She had horses to haul, bales to haul, now cows. My dream went by the wayside.........
Yep, that's me and the "better half". And about the shirt.....all I can say is that it was a nice day. First (and last) car show I ever entered. Obviously, I didn't get any award. Must've been the shirt.

haha, your wife must of been happy, lol
bad news guys, in the front i noticed a bad sag today it dropped one to two inches. i called sky jacker, and guess what, i was sposed to get an add a leaf for the front for the extra weight of a deisel, but i didnt. i ordered it over the phone from 4wheel online, i made it clear i had i deasel, i asked more than once if it was the same kit for a desiel too and he said yes. now i have two sagging front springs and the guy from 4wheelonline said he was sorry and there is nothing he could do, butt he told me the add a leafs i need cost 129 extra bucks. so i need to take mu springs out get add leafs, some how for less than 129 would be nice since i dont have the money, and put em in. so im sure not in the best mood. oh yeah, the guy at skyjacker said he recomends i send the springs back under warrenty since they sagged so much already. so what now, ride around with six inch lift in the back and stock hight in front till i get my new springs ??
