Yeah being only 20 min from the truck crossing & mail box helps. Pricing down there is 50% cheaper for HD pads compared to here. It's amazing that you can get HD pads for $50 set there vs $100 here for the good stuff. Usually I wait till I have a few items to order though to make it really worth my time and to save more. At least this way I can rebuild the whole rearend for $400 with HD parts and not have to skimp on it

Didn't know about the height issue although any lifted vehicle can get a VI. Mine will stay stock height though since I need easy access to the bed. If it were just a toy it'd get 4" of lift asap haha
