Saggy *** bars + saggy *** leaves = low double lift. I finally put in Cory's old leafs, carried over the AAL, and dropped in a taller driverside t-bar adjustment bolt, then turns both sides 2.5 full turns. I now do not have flat A-arms like I did before. lol. Got about 1.5" all around.

Shane I'll make you a deal. By the meet next year I promise to have blacked out '06 corners or by the time a certain M90 in your garage is on your truck, whichever comes first.

lol! You can EXIF edited pics?? lol. I'm still learning...don't be giving me a hard time young man! lol. Nah...I didn't notice until I got home and honestly, I'm sorta happy with the results. Edited the pics some and darkened the gamma a little bit and most turned out pretty decent I think. I think every one posted had some post work done to 'em. I was shooting in P and there's no auto ISO in P. Go ahead...call me a noob. I don't care. lol.

Geez, thats more customized Rangers in one spot than we have in this entire state.

How do you even get that many peoples schedules lined up so they can all come out the same day? We can't even pull that off down here for our little 5-truck meets lol

LOL! Well, one thing that really helps us is the fact that like 8 of us live within a 5mi radius of eachother. We can literally call eachother up and within' two hours I could have my whole driveway full of modded out Rangers. lol. That and planning like 4 months ahead and this time around we didn't just pick a date, we voted. And we post the meets up on every major RBV board. And even with that many trucks showing up, we have a few no-shows which is why we don't keep tally before the meet. lol.

Blue Lake I = like 10 trucks
Blue Lake II = like 14 trucks
Blue Lake III = 17 trucks.

Use the "A" (aperture priority mode)

That allows you to manually control the amount that the aperture is open, and manually control the ISO. It automatically sets the shutter speed to what it needs to have a properly exposed photo. Generally you want to run your aperture wide open, and set the ISO for how much light you have.

if that makes any sense... Call me if you have questions, or if you want a crash course on Nikon camera settings.
