Wow Pat, that's freaking low, but looks sweet.

What are your plans for the sway bar? Are there shorter end links out there? Also how's the ride?

Probably just leave the sway bar off, if i were to use it, i'd need to move it back about 1" on the frame to line up with the mounts, and get some really short links, not worth it in the long run, a truck this low doesnt have much for a high center of gravity so i dont really need the swaybar. As for the ride i just circled the apartment complex to make sure i didnt have any major clunks or knocks before i drive it to work monday.
