Galaxy s3 would be my personal choice but I'm an avid fan of the galaxy series. An apple fan will obviously come in and claim the iPhone is superior. They're both good phones but the iPhone lacks the freedom that android based phones have.

I wouldn't go with the torque. If the s3 is free then ****** that up.

A good spot that I use before purchasing a phone is phonescoop.com. It has reviews and full specs for just about every single phone on the market plus reviews and a rating system.

Definitely get the best otterbox. My girlfriend has dropped her s3 over 100 times (not being sarcastic either. Dropped it 4 times yesterday alone.) and has multiple cracks in her screen because of it but she has no case. My buddy has an s3 in a case and it's still perfect.

My Note II has been abused to hell and back and still remains strong with no cracks or case. Just some scratches and scuffs from my pocket at work. Screen protectors always came off so I said screw it. I can deal with minor scratches.

If I can't read the stuff, I get my 16 year old daughter to do it.

I had a job application that the applicant used text talk on it. Guess who didn't get the job???

Checking in from the Joliet area. I have owned my XJ for 7 years and just recently starting to do some work. I wish I had more disposable income.

Here is my situation: I have a '98. Three weeks ago I replaced my from coils, shocks, and links, and the rear leafs (heavy duty w/ 7" arch) and shocks. These are all stock parts either bought from Quadratec or Autozone.

I also bought a Teraflex 1.5" budget lift and installed the spacers in front and the shackles in the rear. I had a strong vibration from about 27mph - 40mph.

The combination of the HD leafs and Teraflex shackles made the rear sit noticeably higher than the front. As a result of the vibration and the stance, I bought standard shackles from Quadratec and swapped them out. I also bought a t-case lowering kit from Teraflex but I did not install yet.

The vibration is nearly nothing now and the stance is almost level. The rear is still a bit higher but only by about an inch.

Here are my questions: can I buy larger stock shocks for say a p/u that will bolt right on to replace my stock xj shocks? How can I level out things when I install the Teraflex shackles again? If I get bigger spacers for the front do I need to get an adjustable track bar and longer links?

My goal is to still lift my xj some but do it on a budget that I have mostly spent already.

Any help is appreciated.
