    Well, about two weeks now after I said I would be done cutting and tackling large projects with the truck here I am admit that the statement "If you're not cutting, you're wasting time" is true.

    Placed an order for the BAMF shock relocation kit yesterday for the rear suspension and am planning to run either 2.0 or 2.5 x 12" kings with it. I have 3.5BS wheels and tall skinny tires so I don't expect any rubbing even with the the 2.5" shocks.

    In addition for the rear I have planned:

    -Extended brake lines, all pro or wheelers.
    -Ubolt flip kit, undecided
    -Possibly going to run a hydro bump kit but may just do super bumps in the rear as well.

    Just ordered me some 3.5" bs F-5's so I'm hoping mine won't rub when it's fully stuffed

    Things are moving along. Did some tinkering and prepping over the weekend in between boxing up racks and doing stuff for my day job.

    Limit straps are ready. Just need to weld on the mount to the frame when I have some time.
    IMG_3191.jpg

    Started putting together the BAMF relocation mounts. No gas so I just used flux core. Didn't turn out to bad and the little hobart handled the 1/4" steel like a champ.

    IMG_3195.jpg

    Drilled some holes through my crossbars to mount the maxtrax. Messed up one of the mounts and need to get another but the other three are installed and on the truck now.

    IMG_3190.jpg

    Also, still debating options for my spare. This demello setup is cool if I didn't have a bedslide and the need to keep more of the bed open.

    Hey Zach, I know you had a swing out arm before on your bumper, but you said it was to much weight and effected the performance, but here is another option from KMFB, a tire gate swing out and it is lite weight. @JeepAndrew fabricated this one for @T4C0CH40S . Your truck looks awesome!!!!!!

    I like that and had read through the build, my only issue is I need to keep the tailgate on for weather and storage purposes.

    Ha, I doubt that. Too many other guys with lots more time than I. I just want this to actually be a build thread this year.

    Wheelers Extended Brake Lines and Toytec Ubolt Flip showed up last night. Going to do some welding this weekend on a few projects and am going to mess with the rear suspension to see what I can do for shocks back there when I do the BAMF relocation. I will probably end up doing the 2.0s but would really like to get the 2.5s if possible. I am not worried about rubbing but the 2.5s are 1" longer than the 2.0s which will likely limit my uptravel even more.

    I bet you could get a different rod end on the 2.5 to get the same collapsed/extnd length as the 2.0

    Yeah I haven't talked with DSM yet but I am almost sure it is an option. The only thing that keeps me from going with the 2.5" is the slippery slope that mods put you on. Even though I have no plans to do different tires or size now, I know that in the future I will be tempted to do so. I am not concerned about doing the 2.5" body with the tall skinny 33's with 3.5BS wheels but if I ever go to even a wider 33 the tires will rub the body of the shock under flex.

    You think you'll rub with an 11.50" tire and 3.5" BS the tires would still rub?

    I've got the pelfrey kit (similar enough shock placement to the bamf)and I rub my shocks a bit at full articulation. I've got 2.0's and kind of wish I could run 2.5 but its just not possible without low BS wheels and a spacer probably... 2.0 will do u fine likely. Mine do me fine but I'd like the extra oil and shim size of a 2.5.
