    My new frame ('74) to go under my '46 2A was gunna be a work of art! It was to have 6" monolinear springs with the mounts tucked up as far as possible using stock car sliders (to keep things tight to the frame) MAN, this was going to be SO trick....OU OU OU... well shoot me down...arggggg!!! ya know, as shmart as dis fool ist...seems ah ain't as...well, it sounded so good on paper!!!
    So here's the NEW question how do you feel about: Holbrook, YJ stock, Rub. Exp., BDS and the usual Sky...super...trail m...ranch..etc? Mix' n' match??? Lookin' for 3"-4" lift...or less (body lift?) for 33.5"- 34" tires....I really don't go for the SOA! What are YOU using, or thinking and how does it work???

    HEY, THANKS!

    Yes, you understand, I do trust you're satisfied with the results and/or what would you change?
    neptco19 said there was a thread about sliders that they wouldn't last in an off-road environment and JP mag. Christian Hazel said the monos bent if pushed hard, so I am rethinking but would like to hear thoughts on the subject! Maybe I shouldn't have had that last beer last night??
