Alright....I've put a few hundred miles on the Bilstein shocks now and let the 'confirmation bias' wear off. I can't really find the right words to describe the difference. The best I can come up with, they are much more of a supple ride than the OME shocks were. This was noticeable from the...

It is a 2.5" lift. I was just in my shop looking to see if I was running caster shims.....and I do not have any up front. I'm not 100% sure exactly what shims I'm running in the rear. Maybe they are 6 degrees to point my rear pinion at the rear drive plate, thus the DC driveshaft. ....Now...

Been running a DC driveshaft on my OME 2" lift since 12/2016..... < click here >

If it's a simple crack, want to try and braze the cracked aluminum? If you have a map gas torch (or other gas for that fact), get you some Hobart 770206 brazing rods. I was messing around with some Hobart rods and aluminum pieces not too long ago. I was surprised how simple the process was...

FWIW I run the lower setup with a double cardan driveshaft.

See if these help. For clarification: Tire - 32x11.50R15, Rim - 15" OEM modified to 9" wide, Springs - OME medium CS001R, Shackle - OMEGS9

@65swb45 brings up a good point, and reminded me of what modifications I had to do to a new exhaust that was installed when I initially purchased my 40. In the photo below, you can see how the mechanic had the exhaust run a little more than 45 degree out the right rear corner. However, with...

Used a few Ram Mount components and mounted it in the old choke location.

If RP doesn't take it, let me know....

Taking a non-itinerary drive & seek vacation with the wife last week up the eastern coast, our second day of driving/destination, we were out taking a random morning stroll.....and I come upon this! My wife was shocked that I knew, (well, MUD known more like it) the owner. Beautiful...

The US supply of these mats were very slim a few years ago when I purchased about six of them. If you were in GA or near by, I have two I could sell. A note about my rear mat, a recent modification I did to help keep it in place < click here >
