I'm pretty much out of commission for the rest of the summer. My truck has a date with the painter in two weeks. I'm just beginning to tear it down. Big job to deconstruct, mark, and document, although the it's easier to tear down than to reconstruct. I may meet up with you guys a few times in my vette. Cheers, Lee

Lee I think if you make it to the Valley in your Vette will be good enough for us as long as you make it.

So it was my fault and the idiots blocking the alley.

Clusmy me!!
See, I can't take you anywhere. You were all ready to start a fight with a guy and than find its your darn fault. Stay home and don't go to anymore meet and greet until you learn how to drive.lol

Re: SoCal checkin' in

So I changed my coils from 4 inch to 5 inch today. Not a bad stance, I still want to add drop spindles and maybe lowering blocks. So I took the truck out to test and it was a different ride, still early but it was a smoother ride.
Get back home and my radiator springs a leak.

Thanks Dano.

Now trying to decided if im going to get the dropped spindles, if so it will be done before our meet in the Valley. That would give me a 5 on 5 drop.

Decided to not go with the drop spindles for now. Thinking that if I drop 2 1/2 more inches in the front on those 15 inch tires, I would be too low. So I will wait until I decided to change the wheels. Got my radiator fixed for now, 20 bucks. Did not want to install a new one now since I dont have a grill and did not want to damage the a new radiator. Are we still on for the 20th?
The 91FWY Truck Show is that Saturday at Canyon RV Park, same place as the Brothers Truck Show. Anyone going to that?
