    things that make you say hmmmm...

    not quite the 450 I scored on scott's ramp... and I'm not even close to flexed out yet. Did I mention it now lives and runs smooth as a kitten purring?

    Look mine's actually on a trail... Looks good, but let's see the EBVD actually hit a trail, God knows you have been talking about it long enough. Now that it is built up exactly like it "had to be" to wheel, do it you Michael Jackson wannabe. (the one glove in the pic...)

    I knew that was going to get some ****... I had just ripped the other one off.

    As for getting to and from the trail... you driving your scout only proves your as dumb as brandon and mark... it's much nicer in a tow rig... Even mine.

    after looking at your Christmas break pics, that girl next to Shipman looks like Denise - remember her?

    Who is Nikki - did you find a gal for you yet?

    Also, you said "Not even close to flexed out yet" but that front coil looks like it is giving it all it has in compression.

    one more thing - that thing us STILL ugly!!!

    Not Denise

    Yes It is a girl for me... she's pretty cool

    That coil has about 2" of compression left, and the droop side has a lot left, not to mention I still have 9" travel shocks mounted in the back, and it is now what is inhibiting my flex. I think I'll loosen it up a bunch with my new 14" bilsteins in the rear and a set of national springs... not to mention a little more cutting in the rear.

    My tires rub my coils at full flex. I need to put on some 1" wheel spacers too...

    I know it's ugly, but in a cool way.

    I'll be there... NOTHING could stop me from showing up.

    looks pretty flexed out to me. I would be suprized if you lose a spring on the trail, the way that tire is hitting it.

    oh, and by the way real rigs drive home

    You know, looking at the body on that bronco kinda reminds me of a big greasy burger in a brown paper bag. That thing looks like the grease is soaking through the body panels. Try to give that ugly bitch a bath man.

    It's not flexed out... what do you know about coils?

    Broncos don't lose coils... they have a beefy spring retainer setup that bolts the coils in.

    Real rigs have trailers so they can be pushed hard and broken, without giving the unprepared and foolhardy driver an ulcer trying to fix his rig in time to get home.

    that is a good analogy ... unfortunately I don't think I'll ever be able to avoid the cheap drab paint soaking up any oil, water, or grease that touches it...
