Damn 295!

On my way to school yesterday my truck got swallowed by a pothole on 295, after that something seemed funny because the truck rode like crap. Well my front shocks took a beating so i ordered a set of these and picked them up today



These shocks are intended to go along with a 3-5 inch lift


...more pics to follow

Yeah well tonight did not go as planned, after my spring compressor let loose and got a 15/16ths box wrench to the groin we found that my front spring spacers were not the correct ones, so I will spend tomorrow hopefully finding the correct ones, or a set of larger springs. After those two problems I called it quits and took the night off. I will start back up in the morning and let ya know how it goes.

OK4WD is a great shop, top notch guys IMO.

The WaWa thing is ********. They should stick to the old style bottles.

OKAY my buddy took pics of it...here they are







**Last pic, YES I know the bottom and top blocks are switched around, an email has been sent to SuperLift as to why it would not fit the other way around...its easy enough to change up if they tell me just to make the hole for the pin on the perch a little bigger. It got the truck back on the road though**
