Thank you ! I’m very pleased with the results. Yes black is a pain in the butt, but it sure looks great when it’s clean which lasts about 5 minutes.

No block in the rear. I had the same rake as yours and now it sits about 1/4” higher in the front than the rear. I think you would be pleased in the construction of the BDS. They are extremely well built. Hit up Frank here at Stage 3, I’m sure he’d cut you a great deal. This photo was taken...

Thanks Duke ! I have all the fine folks here to thank for sharing their installation experience that I read up on before starting. I work as a mechanic for a living so some of it was standard operating procedure, but stuff like pushing the axle out of the knuckle saved a lot of grief.

Love it ! Drives/handles like a different truck now, free of all the annoying Ranger handling issues from before. I set the preload to give 3 1/4 “ lift. The UCA’s were easy to do since everything was apart and the BDS were at a good price. They come with good Moog ball joints, not uniballs...

We arrived in Iowa on a Sunday, Monday morning I was at the treasurers office switching my plates. Heard too many stories of peoples vehicles with CA plates being vandalized. On a side note, unlike CA DMV, I walked in to the treasurers office with no appointment, paid less than $500 to register...

Even parts for my Ranger cause cancer in California.

You can’t make this stuff up ? https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/california-court-rules-bumblebee-is-a-fish-under-environmental-law-report-3042334

Not sure what your point is. The two photos I put up were the stark contrast between So Cal traffic which always is a factor wherever and whenever you go somewhere, opposed to my life now which has zero traffic to be planned around. BTW, 10 minutes drive from where that photo was taken which is...

?Time for popcorn…

The day we left CA, gas was 5.70 a gallon. I took this photo when we stopped for gas in Arizona. This is what my daily commute to work looked like in So Cal. And what it looks like now at 7AM in Iowa. I love our true four seasons of weather, and lots of genuinely nice folks that aren’t...

One of the many reasons I packed up my family in 2019 and left that hell hole. I’ve never looked back once for anything.

I realize it would be one more key to keep track of, but could you use the padlock hasp in the meantime ? It would be way more secure than the plastic pivot lock. One quick tug with a flat blade screwdriver and it‘ll pop off.

Looks terrific ! 10 kinds of badass right there.

I just finished doing the Eibach coilovers and shocks with BDS uca’s. Night and day difference. All the handling issues I had are now gone. No more brake diving, body roll, or that horrible porpoising, wallowing affect. I did mine all at once so I can’t say for sure how much the rear shocks do...

I love them so far and you are right about the placement, everything is spot on.

My bud in Michigan had a similar request in the late 80’s from Ford to use his Mustang for a couple weeks. They ended up replacing the manual transmission and clutch before returning it. All he knew was it was being tested at one of the proving grounds and when he got it back it was clean with...

Thank you !

I know, I know…on pg. 929, I said I was going to be done for a while. No sooner did I say that and I get an email advertising these Havoc HS2 steps. The rest as they say is history. I’m not even going to bother fooling myself anymore.

Dang it ! Just when I though I was done buying stuff, this forum kills me ?

I’d love to have the gas prices now of those pump’s era. Cool photo ??
