    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    Also decided that I need the 700# springs. Way too much body roll and nose dive under brakes with all this extra weight. Anyone want a set of 14" 600# eibach springs?

    Yup. The long ass billy 5100s are on there and work great. I have droop for days. My jacks alnost went tall enough to swap the shackles out to the rubicon ones...onky thing that limits down travel is the leafs which is perfect! I did have to get some monster bump stops though to avoid bottoming out the shocks.

    Some pics of my rear suspension...don't mind the shackle angle since I have almost no weight in the back it looks really vertical. Once the bumper and spare are on they will be much closer to 45*. I tossed 200# of dirt on the very back of the bed and I was sitting at 3 1/2" of lift and a perfect 45!

    Yeah they are 4.5 x 4.5 x 2.5... fucking huge! They are cool though since they work actively in the rear cycle. They compress as you hit and get progressively more firm. Pretty cool. Did a quick cycle on it as it sits now and fully stuffed they just touch...if I remove the overload leaf I can get it to stuff a little more but I like having it there for towing.

    Another thing to watch for is that rear abs wire...I imagine your bump stops probably help..but I had to make a bracket to drop mine because it was getting so tight

    Also..chris...do those brake lines sooner than later. ..newer the truck the easier it is to change them

    I bent the bracket down so I gained a couple extra inches. Good news is that it is pretty close to center so it has less travel to cycle than the outside of the axle.

    I know people who don't even run extended lines and just unbolt the bracket from the axle. The lines are pretty damn strong...

    I'll probably do them in November or December. Just don't feel like dicking with them on this upcoming round of mods.

    Really? Just because of DSM or are they normally significantly cheaper? I plan on just purchasing the Icon's with the Icon 700#'s already on them but I'm just curious.
