Today, took a half-hour drive to the local radio shop. Got rid of the rusty old spring and bent behind whip. Went with a 4" SS spring and a 4ft. fiberglass antenna.

Shipping costs will really drain you on these heavy lift components...

In all honesty, my wife is pretty cool about it. She's kinda been egging me on. Was planning on doing a 3" lift on 31's...now its 4.5 on 32's with parts in the mail...also considering long arms...lol! The madness never stops.

After shipping. I had a 160 credit there from returning something previously. And quadratec tried charging me 35 shipping for a t-case rebuild kit, talked them down to 19.99 lol

If you use google shopping you can get free shipping from quadratec. I'd rather spend my money with the smaller vendors, instead of the walmart of 4x4 parts, but with the money I've saved on free shipping for heavy components I've been able to buy nicer parts. Got my wheels and leaf springs from them w/ free shipping.

Mounted a siren under the hood to use as a PA, and remounted my CB antenna after realizing it's old spot wasn't worth a damn.
