I decided on bilstein 5150's before Elbe.... Can't wait

 

scrambling my OBA parts together, ive got all the key components in the mail, Just need a check valve and a bunch of random fittings and im good to go!

 

Hey Alex, nice choice on shocks. Let me know what the price was on them you found. Yeah, I'm back. It took me all of about 3 minutes to register under a different name and email address.

 

Did you find a better price on the Bilsteins than you could get on RC 2.2s?? Even through GRIMUS??

 

Why the change?

 

One of the forum moderators banned me from the forum for a week for using swear words at those two idiots in the DNR police thread, who were saying they drink beer while they are wheeling and that it's okay to do that. So, this moderator who is out to save the world from people who cuss ban's 2-3 guys for a week and gives several others infractions...whatever that means, for swearing on the forum, which is against the forum rules. However, he failed to actually read what was said in the thread leading up to the swearing and completely missed, or else he just didn't care, that two individuals were promoting drinking while driving on trails on public land. Now, one of those guys used swear words so he too was banned. However, get this, the other guy who wrote and admitted right on that thread on this very forum that he and his friends drink beer while wheeling and the moderator did nothing to this individual...NOTHING!!! I feel very strongly that drinking and driving is wrong on the road and especially wrong on the trail. So, yes I did swear at that kid and I would do it again. So, his banning me will prove nothing nor teach me anything. So, it's pretty much for nothing. While this moderator's lack of doing anything to the guy who drinks and wheels speaks VERY LOUDLY that moderators on Cherokeeforum evidently think drinking and wheeling on public land and talking about drinking and wheeling on public land is A-Okay. I sure wouldn't want to be the head guy of Cherokeeforum and have a Moderator who rolls like that working for me.

 

I didn't feel like waiting the week to speak my mind about it, so I registered under the new name and with a different email address.

 

I thought it might have something to do with that BS yesterday, but wasnt sure. Good job standing up for what you believe in!

 

Just because I said that, never said I was behind the wheel.

 

I just sent an email to the Webmaster of Cherokeeforum. If he doesn't do something about this I'm out and taking as many of the PNW guys as will go and going to another forum. I can't stay on one that backs guys who drink and drive but, will cut the legs off of a guy who swears at the drunk driver.

 

Dude, it's a little late to say something like that now to save yourself. You never needed to say you did it "while behind the wheel". Your whole bad attitude toward me saying I hated guys who drink and wheel said it all. It said you do it. It said you think it's allright to do it. It alsio said you think it is allright to say you do it, while on an open forum. Evidently the Moderator who closed that thread thinks drinking and wheeling is okay, too, or at least it's not as bad as swearing. Cuz he hammered evrybody on the thread who said swear words and you, the guy who started the whole thing, came out smelling like a rose. So good on ya, Buddy!

 

I never got hammered for anything that I did. It won't bother me if it does happen to me. It's just a forum life goes on.

 

Like I said, good on ya, Buddy!

 

Only getting two, and for like $80 each on serious offroad

 

Wow! so they are as spendy as they are everywhere else. I hear they are awesome shocks. Well worth the money. I'm just a cheap skate...LOL. I looked at Matt's Longarms when I went to his house last night to get my drop brackets. Those things are freaking HUGE!!! His Jeep will break in half before he even stresses those things. I've never seen a Johnny Joint that big before.
