    Ok thanks! Lol, I figured; stock wheels BS have 5.25" , 1.5" spacers will bring me to 3.75 which is what BAMF recommends so you don't rub. I guess I could go inboard with da upper shock mounts :notsure:

    To much knowledge mine is as far in as possible.. We set mine up how Jerry said it should be, both shocks forward of the axle at a 9 degree forward angle. Its the bottom shock mount that you have to flex your suspension so you give yourself enough up travel so you don't bottom out or ride your bumps.

    So this is back on... I think the swing out looks better with the soft top.

    Hey Dakota! It was nice to see this thing in Moab. Took me a while to find my way here, but now I'm sub'd.

    How's the 63" swap holding up? It's on my list :)
