    Hey yall, I build and work on desert trucks in real life so here's an idea that I think would be really helpful to users in game, Adjustable Air Bump stop spring rates and travel, Because when you are building a jump truck you need a lot of PSi in the Bump stops to protect from damage, But when you are in a trophy truck lower PSi is good to support the suspension through out its travel without being too harsh. I also think a long and short travel option for bump stops would be very good for shorter travel trucks that are also used on the streets with smaller tires too. And another thing that would be awesome is a 42 inch Grip All screamer desert tire, for when you need to go 120MPH through 3 foot tall whoops for hours on end! One thing I have noticed is that the Screamer tires get caught in the wide Prerunner fenders when you hit full bottom out and it requires a big slam to get them unstuck again, not a major issue it just gets irritating sometimes. I also think Adjustable limit straps would be cool too, so you don't overextend your control arms or damage axles or driveshafts as well. This next idea is a little wild but a Bedcage and Bypass shocks for a leaf spring truck would be so awesome too, and maybe traction bars to stop axle wrap and back and fourth movement! As well as bump stops for leaf sprung trucks too, and it would be cool to fit it in the Off-road Tube frame as a secondary option to the 4 Link trailing arms as well as just keeping the Bedcage idea for normal framed trucks with bed cutouts. If you want a example Cognito Motorsports and Dirt King Fabrication are prime examples for this type of stuff, Deaver Suspension is a good place for Off-road Leaf Spring ideas, such as shackles and Progressive Leaf Packs.

    I second this. I would love to be able to have adjustable limiting straps, 42 grip all screamers, and the adjustable air stops!
