    Curious about the ltbs, do you mud a lot?

    It's gonna be nuts haha, just ordered my leaf pack from alcan springs.

    The ORI's are what Jerry's running on the BAMF rig, he figured out a way to get them on a mid travel setup, so when I get a portal axle, I'll still have usable shocks :D


    As far as the LTB's, the beloved orange bicycle will be the pavement pounder this summer so I can keep the LTB's lugs high for the mud. They're a mud tire, but also just great everywhere, clean out at lower speeds, and REALLY hook up when you need them to. My truck build is actually more overland specific, these will just make sure I get where I'm going.

    Why are you doing nitrogen? Way more pricey and not much faster then CO2??

    And nice. What are the ORI specs??

    The nitrogen is specifically for the ORI's. I won't be filling my tires with it.
    Going with an 8" body on the ORI's. the CV will be the limiter so they'll be strapped right before. Fully collapsed they're smaller than oem shocks :)

    Also, they're OD is just over 3.25" so I'll have tons of room in the wheel well.

    Make sure you make a build thread.
