Welcome to the club, Zach. Just bring her out and I'll show you the difference in a "stick vs auto" battle

Glad to hear that you got nearly a twin, man. The only thing that could be different that you didn't list is the interior seats. You got buckets or bench?

I could smell a rebuild on the 4.0, drop that in the XLT, shove a 5.0 and a T-5 in the Splash. Am I close?

If you need any help with the drop or whatever, I'll be doing mine in January/February. You guys [hint hint] can come over and we can do them together...and sing kumbuyah! [spelling] There is tons of info that I have compiled from drops, shocks, wheels, numbers and more. It was all pretty overwhelming, but I got it all down-pat.

GET SOME PICTURES!

Dude, as much as you hate it, go over to RPS. I found a TON of my parts over there, those guys deal cheap. There is a new slider window for sale someplace on there for a few ants and jelly.

As for us talking, you know my email and obviously, PM!

Bah, who wants a 4x4 Splash when you can get a factory lowered powerhouse to hug corners?!

Nah, 4x4's are cool, too. I had one, but not a Splash. I think for me, I could never have a 4x4/lifted Splash...
