Every order Scott's does is made to spec. Justin asked a lot of questions about what I expected the truck to do, what kind of stance I was looking for, etc. After I came to the conclusion I would actually be driving the truck and expecting it to carve some corners, I decided to use his bolt in IFS with the coil over set up.

These pictures actually came from his shop. They completely assemble everything to make sure it goes together before they ship it out.

I get that all the time. My wife gets livid because she knows exactly what I'm up to. She says" Hun you've got more boxes on the porch. How much did you spend this time". Lol not much. Cough cough. I love deliveries. Looks good bro.

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"

A friend offered to take delivery for me, but I figure a death by a thousand cuts is better than just showing up at the house one day with a remodeled truck

I've been married 38 years and have tried every method I can think of. This works as bad as any.

I know what you mean. But as you can tell from my build thread the changes to my truck have so far been on the underside, you know the drivetrain and the options. When it comes time for air bags and body panels, she will be well informed Cause as much as I love my truck, it is the most uncomfortable thing to sleep in.

Just remember - you can always sleep in the truck, but you can't drive the house.
