@PSU Taco85 you heard of these? Thinking of getting a set since my truck is unloaded 95% of the time. Warning, dude making the vid is dweeb

Can't say I've heard of them, but seems a bit pricey for what they are. I'd be a bit nervous of using them when fully loaded up towing something, that's alot of torsional force on a rubber impregnated shackle. In my mind, I could see the rubber tearing and the shackle going to full compression at the worst possible time lol I'm sure they do soften the ride a bit but will it soften it up $400 worth?

If it were me, and the ride was that harsh, I'd stick a few 50 lb bags of sand or solar salt in the bed and call it a day and save that $400 in a pot for better money spent like a coil sprung linked rear end setup :)

Finally got around to refreshing my rear springs. Used one of the Chevy leafs as an AAL and kept my stock overload. That lifted me wayyy too high so I then removed the lift shackles and reinstalled my factory ones. Love the ride height now, and the ride quality is so much better. No more axle wrap either!

Got the RTT on the truck this evening in preparation for the weekend. It dropped my rear half an inch, but I still have 1” of rake so I’m happy with my bastard leaf packs. Going to see if it settles much and then maybe reassess later on. The RTT clears my garage door by about an inch, so that’s killer. Pretty happy right now and curious to see how it drives tomorrow.

Where are you going this weekend? I bet the RTT and camping gear make the leafs settle in pretty quick if you spend anytime driving with them on the trails this weekend.

I ordered the Husky Liner X-act contour floormats today. After picking it up yesterday and seeing just how small the front floor mats really are. Floormats moved up the list quickly.

I have those in my work truck, they are nice. My personal truck has rubber floors already so I just tossed a couple of cheap full width rubber mats over them.

Replaced the passenger side fender, got the grille on, got the new corner lights on, new headlights will be here tomorrow. Need to wire wheel the bumper and repaint it and pick up some stainless hardware for it. This thing is cleaning up real nice. Dont think I'm gonna be able to let it go after all.
