    You have any pics of a coilover swap on the front end? Ever done a lifted coilover/4link?

    What all does it take to swap the torsion bars out?

    I imagine the coilovers are a lot lighter too. Lowered torsion bar trucks handle like 60's caddys. I dropped my mom's tahoe 4 inches just for giggles, it was ALL over the place. And it has air-ride, so I'm sure standard shocks would be worse.
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    Chase is still AWD, but im betting i will be able to take him at the track. I dont see him hooking up very well and i should be dead hooking while spraying out of the whole. I would at least like to beat him to the track so he dosent just have to beat his old record.
