Good looking rig. Hopefully those springs will loosen up some. Alot of space left for stuffing it looks like.

What shocks are you running?

Yep, I was talking about his RTI score, considering my IFS rig does that easily. Once I finish relocating my fuel tank and doing the rear suspension, mine should score much higher.

One thing to note is Jayson is just eyeballing that 500 score on the RTI- the actually score might be higher if he had his tape measure with him.
