True!! I am not a off roader so that is the reason for the SS to be more fun for me! Plus my 2WD would not do so great :rotfl: can hardly get through snow loll

Bad pic. I was in a hurry. ill get better ones when it warms up a bit. Im having some issues with the cv boots. i think the alinement might have fixed it. sears had 10% off today so they ended up paying me $24.00 after they alined it.:thumbsup:

Rides like a dream. Better than when it was new. Still need to get new bushings for the stablizers. they make a little noise.:wootwoot:

Looks nice man. If the CV boots are slipping off get some 4" hose clamps from Lowe's or Home Depot and up them on there.

Yeah the boots are known to sometimes allow grease past them after a lift. Just put the 4" hose clamps on there in place of the stock straps that are slipping a bit.

Lookin' good! I'm running nearly the same setup. It is so superior to stock, I can't even describe it. Mark makes an excellent product. Enjoy!
