Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime

Good to see it back together Regan! I have been waiting to see what you were going to do, and it looks good.

Your weight bias is a little better than mine was last time I weighed it, but I also leveled the truck as it was about 3" higher in the rear. We'll see what that does for me.

I was surprised with the current 3300lbs with out you in it. I know you have an all steel front, with bumper, the air shifter stuff, I just thought it might be a little lighter than that. Last time out mine was 3200 with me in it. But then again, I have decided if it doesn't have a function, it doesn't belong in my truck. You truck is much cleaner than mine.

If I do a front end, I think I am going to do something similar to what is in the rear of mine. Cut the stock frame and go round tube. Chris Alston tubular frame rail kit with the rest of the complimenting parts. It's pre-engineered with bump and everything figured out. I'd imagine with CM rails vs factory, it would shave some extra weight.
