So after finding gold on a pouring day i mobbed half of it avoiding the deep end, knowing with the Sand id get stuck. Come back à couple days later, it was lower so i hit it fat got Warner up then hit the deep end à couple times, hit the deepest part and got stuck, moved around à bit but Sand here sinks alot so you have to be careful, moved back and fourth trying to catch the edge and finally did and got out backwards after working like a 4x4 god. Water was up to my driver window Almost and was diggin deeper. Got outta the whole and manager to Frank the edge and ride her out, great time haha

Uhh, I believe that would be caused by running way too fat.

^^^ I guess I need to look up what shocks you have and make sure they will work as well.

These are the specs for my shocks using the 7" lift.

Front
Collapsed Length (IN): 19.57
Extended Length (IN): 30.31

Rear

Collapsed Length (IN): 20.37
Extended Length (IN): 31.93

You can install that tracbar now just don't cut it.

They're the shocks that came with my 5" RC lift. I'm not 100% on the lengths though.

Guy I worked for cleaned up a bunch of body rot that I had going on and painted the trim black. She's looking pretty good. I'll be sure to have pictures up later. :)

Looks like fun! :D Agreed though, you should def be checking trans and diffs for water contamination.

BTW I love the cap on your truck, it looks huge with it! And you should sell me those **** towing mirrors hahahah lol. They come with it or you buy them?

14x3 air cleaner. no spacer needed. all i needed to do was bend the TV cable bracket down by 1/8" to clear it.

3" recessed bottom plate, made my own bracket to secure it, based on the dakota/ramvan design.

Replaced my upper radiator hose and changed my oil and filter. I also took a picture of the inside of the intake. I haven't replaced the plenum plate and wanted yall's opinions on whether I need to be concerned with what I'm seeing as far as buildup in the intake. I will eventually replace it, yet have other issues to resolve and if you guys think I will be good for a while longer, then I will hold off on the plenum for a little while.
