| springs are meant to control ride height.you need shocks to control dampening.for example,if you drove that truck at speed i bet it bounces alot or the body rolls over on the chassis alot.if you had some shocks with oil to control the rebound and dampening it would handle better. as far as the fire extinguisher...it may be 1/6 scale of an industrial model but not one you would see in a trail rig. ever see a real extinguisher take up the hole passenger side on a real truck ? ;) |

| cool looking ride. as the other guys already said... the water tower in the passengers seat is a little big. add another seat, move that tank to the rear, rip the handle off it, and it can be the OBA for ARB's. |

| "dampening" is what you do to a sponge when you put it under a faucet. "damping" is to diminish progressively in vibration or oscillation. in the army, you'd be doing push ups.  |
