I will paypal someone the enormous sum of $1.00 if they figure out what is different with my truck as illustrated by the following pictures. I will give you a hint, the difference is $200 worth of mods.

AFTER:

I bet Charger won't be able to figure it out... or Steve, or Knoxy, or '85,.... basically any of you.

Damn!!!!!

Do you have a paypal account?

Anyways, those torsion bars were ridiculously simple and easy to adjust. I only took them up an inch, maybe an inch and 1/4. I still had to cut off a wee bit of the bumper though. Not much of a problem, just 2 minutes with the SawzAll.

I see you took off all the plastic. Did that leave a lot of marks and crap behind?

Didn't leave a damn thing. In fact, that was my primary concern. Just took my time and did it right, and not even the black paint was disturbed.
