Great build, enjoy reading.....that rear end is a strange one, wish i had a suggestion to help. Very curious to find out the fix, as i m sure you are as well

I think I'm about to fight through it. Yesterday wasn't fun, but at least I got out of the house,

As far as the rear, I'm just going to drive it and see if anything gets worse.

I agree, getting out of the house is good first step, baby steps

Good idea! Drive it till it breaks.....

Didn't plan on it, it just happened. It went to a guy in Baton Rouge. I don't think he's a member, but I told him about the board.

I know, but I think it's for the best. Now I can focus on some other stuff. At least you got to ride in it,

Rob, how much of an improvement were the ridetechs.? What did you have on there before.? Was it like WOW.?

And are they RQs or HQs..?

I'm trying to decide how crazy I should go on shocks...

Just read through this entire thread - wow!

What an awesome truck to begin with and you took it to a whole new level - really set the bar high!

Great job and a lot of awesome tech in this thread too.

Gotta ask, anything new w/ this one or fresh pics to share?

I'm still test fitting parts and pieces, but it's coming together. I went to the parts store and picked up a bunch of radiator hoses (they thought I was nuts,

), but I didn't want to make 10 trips back...

. Any way, I found an upper that works perfect! I alsot go one for the lower, but I'm not really happy with it, so I'll keep looking. How do you like my "six-pack" holder?

, just having a little 4th of July fun, enjoy!!!

Unfortunately, unless it is posted in this thread somewhere, I don't have the part number anymore.
