Hey guys whats up. Well my wife is now almost 7 months pregnant and even with my AMP steps she has almost fallen out of my truck.... twice. (Slipped and luckily caught herself) So after much thought, I decided im going to take lift, tires and wheels off :puke: After all the research and time and money spent on this project, It sucks. But I would rather have a healthy baby and wife instead of a lift lol. I will probably just put some new wheels on and be done with it. I believe I have the wheels and tires sold locally already. And tomorrow I plan to take everything off the truck. So I will have some things in the for sale section probably tomorrow or the next day. CST 4'' cast spindles and extended brake lines. 2'' Daystar leveling kit. Pro comp 4.5'' rear lift with Bilstein shocks. And also a 1.5'' Billet CST rear lift. Also a pair of BORA 1.75'' adapters. I cant officially put it in the For Sale section yet until I have pics of it off my truck. Just trying to get a jump on things. Let me know if yall are interested in anything. Thanks!

Wouldn't it just be less hassle if you walked over and helped your wife in and out of the truck like a gentlemen :p

If it's a pain for her to get in now, it will really not be fun puting a baby in and out, good move.

Heck no! You crazy! She has two legs! haha. But in all honesty, I will have plenty of doctor bills and baby stuff to buy, so its going to a good cause.

Yea that is another reason, especially when the baby gets a little older and heavier. I mean I aint no ***** man, but it would make it a lot easier on us. lol

I'm interested in all of it but shipping will be a pain to Vegas. But the rear 1.5 i could really use to go along with my MaxTrac spindles. Keep me posted when available. Also congrats on the new addition.

I sold my quads when my new baby was born thinking it was a smart idea. I kept 1, a 70cc that wasnt worth much. The 2 year old loves it now (his favorite toy) and I will be soon investing again.

I guess what I am saying is, dont do it! You WILL regret it down the road :)

How about a second vehicle, maybe a sedan, for the lady and the little one?

I did some general quotes for what I think the stuff weighs and it was around $100 to ship from me to Washington State. So it might not be terrible. When I get everything off I will weigh it up and PM you some quotes if you like.

My wife does have a car, but it won't be the primary transportation all the time. I also plan to trade the truck in sometime next year for a newer model, so I want have to deal with taking it all off then. And I get to feed my urge of modding by picking out some new wheels in the meantime. lol

I am probably going to keep the steps to make it that much easier getting in and out. But if it is too low for them I already have a co worker that claimed them. Sorry Bold.

One of the major reasons I sold my power wagon. Gotta do what you gotta do.
