i want some after pics!!

how does your RST ride?, mine rides like a log wagon, bounces around and crap.

the front end is all over the place, i figured it was just cuz the 20's follow the runts in the road.

i heard these trucks eat up tie rods, so im going to check them also

Ill try and get some pics soon. I still need to wet sand and polish the tails but its supposed to rain this weekend soI might have to wait. It does ride like a wagon. Its bouncy at times and if you hit a bump just right, it throws the *** end out. Sounds just like mine. Also the wheels will grab the ruts.
I plan on doing a 4/6 or 5/6 drop in the spring if the wheel offset will allow?

+1 on the tranny. its not the shifter, just a joyous side affect of the NV3500
