    No wheel spacers. I ran a 1.5" in the rear in the past to match the front a little better but had a couple issues with them and ever since they make me nervous. I would put them on for a show or something but thats about it.

    That makes sense, thanks for that heads up. Have you ever tried the RRT on the rack/topper?

    Sean,
    First off thanks for the response on the Sherpa, I am going to pick one of those up this winter for next year. Speaking of cool camping gear, have you seen these? http://www.mec.ca/product/5036-920/scrubba-wash-bag-ii/?q=scruba I am going to be buying one tonight for my week long trip next week.

    Also, in your unbiased opinion what do you think of the All Pro Expo leaf pack? I am torn between the standard and the expo and am struggling with the decision. I won't carry 400+lbs all the time but sometimes I will but on the flip side I don't want to kill my back or my passengers with a rough ride.

    Sean, on your rear shocks, do you the 2-3" or 3.5-5" lift shocks? I'm debating if I want to change out my Icons for Fox, just for the rear. I'm not going to change out my Icon c/o for Fox c/o to expensive.

    Sean on your Pelfreybilt armor for the front did you have to request it not have the hoops or can you order it directly that way from Pelfreybilt?

    I would go Expo over the Standard personally and just try to keep some extra weight in the bed for the first month to get them to settle/loosen up a bit. If you did go with the Standards you could always add an overload leaf to it in the future if it starts to sag as well.

    That bag is really cool! I might have to get one for sure. Thanks for sharing!

    Mine rears are 2-3" of lift.
    I'm actually going to be taking them off next month though and adding the Pelfreybilt Shock Relocation Kit.
    This will require a longer shock of course but I am actually going to be putting the same adjustable Fox's back on.

    Nice that sounds good. How do you like the Coilovers? Do they ride smooth for you? Does the wife or your son complain about the ride? I'm know rethinking my front coilovers

    No complaints from anyone lol the only complaint I get from the wife is from the long travel because they sway bar is deleted it has a little more body roll compared to a factory suspension.

    Sean, do you have 2.0 or 2.5 in the rear? How do you think your set up would feel if you didn't have the LT?

    I have the 2.0's. It would feel the same just less roll because I would have a swaybar without LT. The roll isn't bad at all with LT and totally worth getting, it's just something you feel when you first make the switch.
