Thank you!

Thanks to everyone!!! I wish I could get caught up on work so I could do some more stuff to it... Work pays for the truck stuff, so I guess thats priority.

If the front suspension works well and the CVs or calipers dont hit the lower coil mount this would be a good solution for some guys with 4wd trucks that want coil overs in the front not Tbars.
