Are you planning to keep your front sway bar? I'd like to see someone post pics of this setup with the front sway bar in place.

This kit does not allow for a/c because it uses flipped truck manifolds. The manifolds interfere with the a/c compressor

Technically the highway doesn't end there...it just continues into Canada, eh

I've driven through Port Huron several times on my way to the GM Oshawa assembly plants but I don't think I've ever stopped. Well, maybe once or twice at duty free
