yea thats right. i most people dont like drums but my budget does. just running nothing bigger than an 18" wheel they work fine. i drive pretty carefully so unless i go to a 20" wheel ill leave them alone. which i did narrow the rear enough to fit a pretty wide 20" not sure exactly how much probably 2.5" shorter than stock

yeah its been a while since i drove it. caint wait to do it again.
should be starting soon on the shock setup. im gonna do a cantilever setup to get more travel out of the stock shocks and so they will tuck up under the frame rails. i ran out of gas and wire for the welding machine or i would have had more done.
