Any of you frugal bastards try these yet?

Spring time in Ny is almost here, snow is melting, the lakes are thawing and the smell of burnt nittos right around the corner.

Could you post some pics? I'm interested in putting some in. Didn't catch them earlier if you did.

No different than a standard Silverado. Coil front/leaf rear.

bad ben, . have you tried setting the front to soft and checking out the traction difference with the adjustability? also, how much difference in weight would you guess from your shocks to the new one's?
