    The kanakastani dollar is in the shitter right now, times everything by 30% for us, tying to keep a budget on the build so going cheaper route. I'd love to run the Yukon hubs but can't justify price difference.

    Yes on the chevy's.... They have an add-a-leaf stuck in there that will be pulled along with the overload leaf.

    IFS box out of a 94 4-Runner. If memory serves me correctly, this is the box that requires slightly less turns lock to lock.

    I'm actually adding a leaf to my chevies this weekend. Rear sits at 24" and trying to get it up to 26" to match the front. Don't like the bro lean and don't want to be on my bump stops up front if I go any lower... haha. Too bad you weren't close I'd come steal it :spy:

    So what did the Atlas end up running you? My options are to buy an FJ case set up for twin stick and a crawl box, or buy an Atlas. Either way I'll be modifying/building mounts and driveshafts. The crawlbox and FJ case setup will run around $3300 in parts. Just trying to plan ahead here.
