I was under the impression you used the pucks as body lift blocks instead of leave spring blocks. LOL!

I thought this thread was a joke until I got to the pictures. Then I really started laughing. That jacked up crooked looking mud truck is not even funny. That thing is going to be in a faces of death video soon enough.

Hard like steel? or hard like rubber....

Think about all the people that have had major issues with aluminum blocks. And now you had rubber in there. Last time I checked aluminum was a little harder than a hocky puck. I am not being a dick, I am just trying to explain everyone. I hope you realize your mistake, not just taking it out because everyone is saying to.

Shackles...search them

AAL's usually make your ride rougher, unless you get a long AAL, rather than a short one.
