looks good so far.  Awaiting a full cage I assume?

Why the hot water choke instead of electric?

is that the shackle angle you are gonna have out back, or is the weight off the vehicle?

have you ever run that suspension before?

i am not going to run the stock sammi drive train now. i bought the calmini kit and by the time i got it put on i had already changed my mind. going to zookimelt had alot to do with it. my plans are to 3 link maybe 4 link have not decided yet :dunno:. but i know i will be running air shocks or coilover. most of it will be tube with a few surprises.

good! you will be much happier with that... the calmini stuff isnt the best on flex. looks great, but is stiff.

lol, i hear that a lot... personally i dont like the tintops all that much. to me the whole point of owning a sami is to take advantage of open air... to each their own i guess. i agree tho. over here, it is hard to find one in good shape.
