So....I just ordered a set of 5" stacks for my truck. Anybody interested in having a wrench party at the GTG?

Joe, you got anyplace concrete we could work on trucks?

I am not going to make this one either. I work all weekend, and school starting back doesn't help much. Maybe someday I will be able to make it to one. Or hell maybe host one some time, I live on a little lake with a picnic area and stuff or our dock depending on how many showed up.

Don't think for a second you shouldn't come just because you can't bring the truck. We'd all be happy to meet you just the same.

Heck yeah....the more the merrier. I figure Tupelo is maybe three hours away tops so it wouldn't be a bad day trip.

Very true. Conformation e-mail yesterday morning said it will ship Monday. I'll be installing them next weekend if they're here in time.

Oh. When the stacks come in I'll probably just do them at home.....probaby next weekend.

I'm thinking we might still do some wrenching at the GTG. Joe's truck needs some duals.

sweeeet.. I haven't done much to the truck in awhile

I really want to get some blocks for the coils in the front, but all I have seen are 2" blocks which would make the truck truly level. I'm afraid it would look funny. I suppose I could put a 1" under the rear also?
