I have some new Rancho9000 shocks coming in with the myride wireless controller system coming in. Plus my neighbor just machined the components for me to lift it 2 inches. Should be one bad ass winter car!
This thing was a mess from day one. I put lots of time and money into it and it kept having issues. It was time to cut my losses as it was causing many headaches trying to find parts even with my connection with family in Japan, UK, and here in Germany. The truck is with a new owner (I basically gave it to him) and he is rebuilding the motor and trying to get this thing back to 100%. His plans are to offroad the thing with his boys and drag dirt bikes along with him. Good luck to him.
I got a new toy and went the complete opposite direction. Fullsize Chevy truck with a 4 and 6 inch drop. Need to haul things around to fix the house and with a lifted mini van it was killing my back putting crap in it.
Truck is almost finished (new body panels, rebuilt motor, complete new heavy duty brakes all the way around, built new brake lines for it, posi rear end, notched the frame for the drop kit, rear air bag helper system with in cab controls, electric fans, underdrive pullies, air raid intake, custom 3" exhaust with cat delete and 2.5 inch rear duals, aftermarket headers, soon to have a tbi to efi conversion with a standalone ECU, should be a fun truck for my daughter and I to cruise in). The outside of the truck looks like ass but hey it will be a work truck and all the rust will be fixed.
It is much much cheaper to fix a US spec truck then a rare lifted turbo diesel Minivan.

Front Ball Joint Spacer
New Ranch Shocks (adjustable) And soon to be adjustable via a wireless controller
Lift kit was basically free, needed new shocks anyways ($400) and the wireless controller system is also free
Hopefully to have outside pics tomorrow
