wow. you guys weren't kidding. the extended chassis is something i'm smacking my head for not getting any sooner! that, along with the UE EXT kit makes this thing a complete dream to drive. it's certainly a whole new truck, and arguably the single (or would that be dual?) most important/influential purchase i've made to my truck.
the biggest difference has to be the stability (good call, procharged!). the extra length and weight moved forward keeps the power planted on all 4 wheels. the UE EXT kit makes the handling and suspension sooooo smooth! i can take turns so fast now, and instead of flipping from oversteer (the nasty habit i had pre-FLM and UE), it will just spin out.
i have powerstrokes, but dropped the by-pass shocks. my maxx is now all aluminum, so i have the heaviest springs on the coil-overs, and 60 wt. oil in them. it's not enough to support this 11.5 lb. beast. i have to add UE supershocks to my wish list. i've spoken to a couple people who ran powerstrokes as well as supershocks, and they say superstocks are quite superior.
thanks for the input everyone! and thanks mike for the chassis! i'm one happy customer. :027:
