Damn dan... the truck and neon look sick.

Take it slow though... the cars can wait. :)

I was gonna stop by some time the other day when I was in town but I was very short on time.

I get out in 5 months so we'll be able to kick it again.

I like my cantilever setup & all but the more I look at it the more I want to change it. I don't like the amount of room it takes up in my trunk & I would have to figure out where to put the shocks....the new way will solve the problem. No I'm not doing air struts either
