Nooooo! Say it isn't so. That looks sweet on the Ansens(?) Although, I have to say that I like it with the stockers as well. Very nice ride Very Happy

Thanks! No worries, the Ansens are still mounted on the tires. Just a quick fire up of the impact gun, an adjustment of the beam and it's back. This way it's a quick change to suite the occation.
