yea first time its been out to play since the paint job/remodel. and I did manage to scratch one of the doors, after I broke a stainless arb line, and then I broke a front axle which in turn took out a hub and ball joints. O'yea, and before I even got there, the muffler on the suburban came appart and I drug the tail pipe down the road for a few miles before I heard the thing bouncing behind me :D dam stereo to lowd :D

did you notice any difference with the back cut? I'm curious if it wheeled any different at all, more stable, stiffer, etc...?

well yea I did notice a diffrence wheeling the thing, more stable, but its not cause the back wasn't cut off, , its cause I moved the axle back 4.5" so the wheel base is sitting at 106.5, which is the same as a full size blazer. the thing is stiffer cause the fan hit the shroud on flexing hard.
