I dunno. I really need some sliders, and I have the cash, but I need shocks too. I need to call the

You don't have to be a member of a club to join Cal4wheel, they have both individual and club memberships the only difference is when a club is a member all members of the club must also be a member of Cal4wheel

Duffil · « **Reply #208 on:** Apr 02, 2007, 08:31:11 PM »

OK...after yesterdays dust-fest, I have realized that I need weight over the rear axle! (and shocks) I was having a hell of a time getting traction, meanokie jumped in the bed, and I walked right out. So, my rollbar will be getting lengthened and installed in an attempt to gain some traction.

My reduction box to trans joint is STILL leaking like a mofo...anyone have problems here before? I thinking about pulling it back apart and just going with a gasket and ultra gray again. any other ideas?

Jud · « **Reply #209 on:** Apr 02, 2007, 10:18:38 PM »

Ya you do NEED shocks! and throwing that extra 150 pounds at my tailgate did help out a little.
