very good question, crackar.

In all honesty, I'm quite happy with the components I chose. the only other thing I wished I would have had the dough to pick up (when the front was completely tore down) was tubular A arms. I was on a strict budget and that idea was nixed. that would have brought the front down another 2-3". HOWEVER that would have meant that the inner fenders would have been axed - which I didn't want to do.

I'm sure as time progresses I'll find a fault with something, but right now I'm 100% pleased.

the only part I really wish would have better quality control was the 5 gallon tank from AVS. the four 1/2" npt couplings were not perfectly inline with another. one was on the centerline, while the other three were off at least 2 degrees each way. this isn't a big problem for guys who use flexible tubing directly out of the tank, but I was going to hard mount the valves directly to the tank. this issue caused me to have to run plastic tube out of the tank to try and compensate for the taps being screwy. but I liked the tank because it was aluminum (no rust) and powdercoated.

got some other tricks up the sleeve for the raised bed wood, but that might have to wait until later. time to hit the street now. who needs and bed floor anyway??!!
