    Im not as crazy as you, I was worried i'd leave my rear bumper on that drop off... its a good drop, hit the rear frame rails... It was the first real time i'd done anything like that... i've played in water and 2' of snow but no real offroading...

    Thanks, If the wind would have cooperated alittle more it would have been better.

    Also im still not sure on the spacers... they look ok but i think i liked it better without them..... I dont know how to describe it, almost like im driving a super wide hummer.

    I thought the spacers improved the stability especially off road didn't feel as tippy. Not to mention I think it looks better as well that wide stance looks right on the XK

    Spacers also give a wider track. This sets the tires a little wider than ruts we ride.
    This also helps from getting stuck or bogged down.
