Nice rig, Carl!! Those springs really did the job.



Hey, don't forget to vote him some 10's if you go for a look!!

Is the wider tires in the rear, for intimidation at stop lights, or for enticing innocent rice burners, and pstrokes?



Nice looking ride. Maybe my wife will let me get a 2 wheel drive to complete the first gen collection I have going!!

MOOG 7226S They are the super heavy duty 1 ton springs. The standard spring is the 7226. They will end up sagging. Cost was about $150 and an afternoon installing them. I ended up finding out my lower ball joints were bad when I replaced the springs so it all came back apart 2 days later.

The wider tires help a little with traction but not enough. If I get on it, the tires will smoke through 2nd and spin a little in 3rd. It has surprised more than a few ricers! The ones that are most surprised are those that are on my passenger side.



I had some little truck that the guy had all set up with hydraulics come up beside me one day. He started palying around with the hydralics and his subs thumping. Had a couple buddies with him. I guess he thought his truck was cool so when I looked over at him and very sarcastically said "wow", it kind of ****** him off. He started gunning it and acting like he wanted to run. Light changed and I left him in a cloud. At the next light, he wouldn't even look over at me and his buddies were laughing at him.
