    There's no debating with you, you're never wrong. Yeah links are the best of both worlds but what about from a practicality stand point? Loads of fab work and most people can't do the link install on their own, where as an SUA requires 2 brackets to get welded and the rest is bolted up. Break a leaf? Replace it, bend a shock? You can drive without rear shocks.

    Well if we're debating and not getting butthurt over friendships... A Chevy 63 swap requires about as much fabrication as a LT SUA setup after everything. And both have gobbs of travel.
    Only main difference is where the travel is at IMO.

    This isn't a debate. There's no travel numbers difference for the exact same leaf pack whether it's above your axle or below it. There's no debating that. Debate over. Friendship returned. Shut up, you bitches.

    What's everyone running for rims?

    I'm looking at 16x8 with 0/4.5BS or 17x8.5 with 0/4.5BS.

    Damn that was an unsuccessful trolling attempt.

    I've actually been looking at the to replace my Expos. I need more flex and something that can carry more weight without sagging unequally

    If he's looking for wheels best bet is just buy the proper back spacing from the get go. Spacers are fine/reliable but still something else to have an issue with.

    Yeah I agree 100%. I couldn't find wheels that were 3.5BS for a reasonable price per wheel though

    What's the proper backspace and offset numbers to avoid having to run spacers and rubbing on UCAs?
