Rhett,

I've seen a few pics of Half Cut 3-4??? with the smaller lights in the front clip and wondered what they were out of. Are they just spotties or did they have hi/lo beam? Good way to gain some headlight bucket clearance.

Its nice to know that there will still be some cool sierras in the year 2099.

Are you running wide tracks and flipped wheels?

Not so far, I still haven't heard back from 4wd stuff about the shocks I need for it to be viable (I think he's forgotten) and I've been broke anyway so can't afford them atm. I hope to get the diff moved back a couple of inches this week though if I can get bolts for the spacers tomorrow.
