man, i've gotta check out your rig sometime. that setup is sweet, especially with the KM2s - they look mighty savage with the kit. i think those will be my next tire. how wide is the front compared to the rear? as for putting in your new gears, do it asap man. the front is a bitch, i know because i just did mine by myself in the driveway and it was not fun. even took out the studs and had to use 2 jacks and it was a pain, yours is even higher up off the ground so good luck man.

No problems at all, they've been really excellent, no leaks that I've noticed and I beat on my truck all the time. I haven't dealt with customer so I can't really comment on that.

just about done. i got a few odds and ends to finish up, bleed the brakes, finalize the torsions, alignment, but all the hard works is done, i didnt get any pics of the installation because my girlfriend took the camera that day. and i forgot to take one of it sitting at ride hight but i will do that tomorrow.
