Road trip
Well most of you know I have been doing the Hot Rod Power Tour now for the past several years. Unfortunately it was canceled last year and this year not looking good at all for it to happen, so a bunch of us over on the Bangshift forum have gotten together and making our own tour this year.
May 1 we are all heading south to Florida for 5 days of driving and sight seeing and drinking! Yea that's right meeting in Tallahassee on Friday May 1 and driving to the most southern point in the state Key West with a few stop along the way and then a 2-3 day stay in Key West before heading home. Gonna doing some drinking there for sure! I'm so looking forward to this. I've never been that far south and I have always wanted to go. I figure about 2400 miles for me round trip. We have 16 vehicles confirmed and a few more thinking about it. If you in the area and see a bunch of out of state tags then you know it's just another bunch of damn tourist coming through. I be in the 71 C-10.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs. |

I hear ya man! We have about 20 vehicles going now. 2 more have signed on. We will have some stops to break up the trip I'm sure. I'm looking forward to it. We have a stop at one of the guy's place right before the key part to have a night of drinking and BBQ at his place for everyone. So eveyone will be well rested for the next drive down to the keys!
