They call that grunt candy around here. Whenever I have to go to the Naval Hospital for an injury, sure enough they give me Motrin 800 plus whatever anti biotics I might need and send me on my way. Looking great lane, looking forward to when you start selling parts you cut off.

looks good...How's frame clearance? I had mine set up that way but had issues with the springs rubbing on the frame. I had to move my shock mounts out from the hoop. When I did this, I had to add a crossmember to keep the hoops from flexing inward.

I cyled the suspension 100? downward wiht no rubbing, and I could only get 75 % upward wiht the highlift and jack, so Ill find that out onthe first trail run, But No rubbin on downward.. And i have already planned on adding a crossmember pipe on the front, I need to ge my other brackets in for it..
