5lbs lighter so 10lbs off the nose! a little different shock angle to get less stroke to wheel ratio and of course I lose my 90* at full bump and I reduced the wheel travel to 24" with out loosing ground clearance which puts me to 6" ground clearance at full bump but wasn't planning on that nor do I think more than 4" is really needed for dunes.

Feel free to stop by anytime, you can also look at Deano's too. They are both sitting the the same shop together. 8) 8) 8)
