upper and lower control arms are on the truck. Quality is good and they're beefy.

Nice one, hows the ride quality now?

The control arms didn't change ride quality in any noticeable way. Still working on getting out to test the difference (if any) in suspension travel with the arms. But ride quality overall is excellent with the Slinky kit.

Makes me want a cruiser.This popped up on my FB feed today as a memory. Two years ago today I bought my 80 in Grand Juction, CO. This pic was taken right after we signed the papers.
It's changed a little since then.

Yes, every day. 60+ miles a day.

Haha, I'm not sure I understood anything you just said.

Sorry, it's a bit stormy here and somewhat of a crap shoot whether or not water will come pouring down from the roof liner/rear window orifice. By comparison, your rig is in a condition I aspire mine to be someday...

Gotcha. Fortunately lots of good information out there on dealing with just about anything these trucks including leaks. As for the condition of my truck, it's not bad but by no means is it a pristine example void of issues. I've got my own list of things that need help still. I need to revamp the interior at some point.

Roughly 230-260 miles per tank normally I think. I don't ever run it totally empty so that's the mileage where I usually fill it up. Depends on how I drive it.

Got to play along the Utah/Arizona Border over the weekend. Fantastic trip with lots of snow, mud, ice, a little bit in the rocks. It was a good shakedown for the Trail Tailor rear control arms that I installed recently. I'll be posting a short review on them soon. I also installed some of the Trail Tailor front recovery points before the weekend trip. I didn't end up needing to use them but they are a nice heavy duty recovery point that will be loads better than the stock tow loops.
