He has a RPM bumper, look closely.... It probbibly absorbs shock. I thought at first it was to keep the front end down until I thought It looked like fuel tubing.

Thanks for the comments!
The fuel tubing was originally there to aid in orientation of the vehicle at night before I used two flashlights. With very little light out and the truck being 100 feet or more away, it's easy to loose orientation of the truck, so I put the fuel tubing on so I knew which way the front is.

Looks good,
Your Mashers are facing the wrong way (you probbibly know this...). Your tranny screw is starting to back out. Get suspension pins w/e-clips to fix this.
