| Re: Snipers Berg Thats great Shane, my first front lowers did not last long, the rock rash tore them up bad, the second set with the aluminum lower half sleeved are still on the truck, with many runs on them.

Thanks, truck really performs well , I hate to even tear it down for a rebuild, but it's going to happen, still not sure what chassis I am going to run, but leaning towards something similar to the current one.

Tear down begins, truck weighs 5.39 lbs right now, the plan is not to be superlight, but just clean up the truck, replace what's broke,worn,
