 Subject: update on my truck

OK, it's been a couple months and a ton of off road wheeling since i got my 3 inch body, 3 inch suspension, and 2 inch shackles with 31 inch bfg mt's. Just thought i'd update u guys on any problems or concerns lately. My alignment goes out of align quite often now, since the dealer said it was because of the new angle. It's off, but not too off track to cause tire wear. That bumping of the bump stops on big holes and jumps has become normal for me. I removed the sway bar for off roading and the bumps came more often, but had a huge difference in flex on the front end. You can barely flex the front tires in the opposite directions with a sway bar, and that can give u a tough time in some spots on the trails. So i removed mine and it flexed much smoother, but the the ride was rough. My tailpipe is sticking low at stock level and hitting the new shackles, but i'll have that fixed soon and raised out the rear instead of the side. My lug nuts were starting to break off (the hollow cap part), which meant i could not remove them, so replacement solid nuts are coming. New scratches on my roof from trees, due to the the height of my truck ;), are a new addition to my truck :). That pretty much covers it. I'm curious how tallquad is handling and other daks out there with the same modifications.
