I got the Bilstein shocks and the Rough Country steering stabilizer last nite and got them installed. Much nicer ride. Im hoping to get the MSD stuff tonite, but if not Im not going to be that loaded for this trip so it can wait.

I have some yard work/improvements that I have been putting off for a while now. Now tyhat its hot here Ill probubly be hiding under a ez up shelter doing yard work in the next couple of weeks. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]
I've been looking at the Bilstein shocks, they are having a special on their rezzies for around $99 each[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Which ones did you get?

THose ez-ups are sweet, we have 3 of them[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] I always keep one in the back of the truck!

Mine were on ebay. 4 for $239.00. Not the rezzie ones. I was going to get the KYB's for $200.00 and they droppped the price of the Bilsteins $25.00 I can get you a link if you want.

I only have one but if my trailer didnt have a awning Id have more.

I got the MSD installed last nite and will be checking milage/performance this weekend.

Looks like plans fell through. The cancelled Hollister Biker thing (i.e. a west coast version of Sturgis) is happening unofficially. The bikers still showed up. LOL.

Going to go shoot people instead up in the hills. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] (Chilkoot Lake area)

LMFAO. Yeah, it can be a pITA. Especially if you're avoiding ripping a paddle. If you're worried about that, leave nobbies on. Just change em on the beach.

What my buddy does in is truck (it's a D/A with the same tires (well, that you guys used to have...the Steeltex) so you *should* be able to do it....just go LOW on the tires.) He throws it in 2WD and buries the @ss. 4WD just pulls it right out.
