Cheers, we can pick up a card and send flowers like we spoke off. I want Marty to take alot of picks at the dealership event next month and make them a plaque for all their support. I have a cheap tripod you can use if you need it Marty it serves the purpose.

Saw a clean white 62 in home depot one spot over from me in good shape, Holden and I ate a candy bar in the 40 waiting to see if they came out, but didn't. Club cards were in the car, hopefully I'll see him again.

When y'all leave the hoods up like that all the time, people are going to think they're broken! The property value in your neighborhood probably goes down every time you break out the wrenches! Ha ha.

If you guys start wrenchin', let me know. I have only brawn to offer, but I want to be a part of it so I can learn a few things. I also have an awesome place to do this if we need some cover. I need to learn more from Theriot about the steering system he has. I would love to upgrade. I'm a little loose right now.

I can be corrected ...no worries. However, I think you need 2.5" of lift for 33's at a minimum. 4" is my favorite. I have 33x12.50x15's. BFG M/T's ...love em.

Wrenching sessions will be great. We can start a list of folks wanting projects done at the next meeting and get them scheduled in. Where we host it is up to the guy needing the work, my shop is always avaliable by default except on KKK meeting nights  Looking at michaels and mine in the back this weekend I can fit three accross the front of the shop we can work on in good weather.
On suspension.
Scott's right all you need is 2 1/2, in my case I always go 4 on my rigs as if I care to run 35's later no worries in changing up the suspenion again. I heard a good point out in the woods of Gilmer. Never really looked at it that way but when you run 33's you air them down on the trail to a 31. 35's down to a 33. In your case a 2 1/2 inch OME would be 1st class on your rig. It would give you great ride for a SUA lift and the clearance you need. I'm installing a 4 inch Hell Creek on the 67 greaseable everything all poly bushings. You can take both rigs for a spin if you want to see the 4inch setup. The 78 has 4 inch Skyjacker.  Factory steel wheels and Hub Caps rule. I'm looking for a factory set now.

Aw, I don't get mad with you guys buying up every rig and Cruiser part in sight!  One day when I'm in the market, you all will have a full fleet of LC's for me to choose from. At least that's what I'm banking on.

Great. I am already set up with a 2.5" Old Man Emu lift. The only thing is that I have a shackle reversal. I don't know if that will have an impact. I really wouldn't mind going with 4" lift but I'm not sure about a few things. When we all get together next, I'll express my concerns and ask my questions so that if it requires looking at my vehicle to offer an answer, the vehicle wil be there.

Great, OME is the best all around from what I've seen. Depending on what shackles they used the reversal won'r affect it. If you want to come by to see the fitment of 33x10.50's on your truck we'll put two on to see if the fitment is what you want. I have two sets at the house. AT's and MT's.
