thanks for the comments guys,

yeah thats a gilly lip,
8 leafs is great, not much movement tho, loves the 3 wheels with sierra's

i wouldnt mind some fender mirrors but the standard ones do something for me?


thanks again guys, didnt think i would get this kind of feedback from the coil sprung boys :P
