Long time, eh? Well the b2 made it over 2000 miles without a single problem. Had to wait 2 months to drive it after we got to TN as the plates ran out. Now I bent a front spindle, was a hellofa ride though. Probaly just fix the 28 for now till as the new home has taken most of my cash and time. Still want a EB SAS and lift, maybe when I get Xmas bonus, wish, wish... Keep me posted LJSilvers
