    Do you want your dual exhaust to be routed through your leaf pack and dumped at a similar angle as they are currently, basically moved forward? We can also just dump it down, its about an hour

    My only real preference is that the tips are clear of the bumper so they do get hit on anything. I'm fine with them being tucked under and pointed down. Are y'all moving the tips back with it?

    It only took them an hour to do everything?

    No it'll be about that to reroute exhaust that way. I wanna say your bill is like 1500 right now. I'll look in the morning.

    Is the rest of the winch and shipping for the bumpers included in that figure?

    Alright guys I need some help.

    How do I convince the wife that I need a SAS instead of fixing the steering rack? Any and all ideas welcome... Thinking of the Trail Gear kit C (link here), or if I could get it built in a reasonable amount of time, one of their other kits.



    Currently needs/problems (or will soon)
    -Need a valve job, so it'll be at GTF anyways...
    -Current CV shafts are wearing pretty good because of lift
    -Current rake annoys me... I want the front higher, I can always add in another leaf (have one sitting in my garage to match the rear)
    -durability?
    -Sell IFS parts: Fox/Fabtech coilovers with Eibach's and UCA's should be easy enough to sell for $700 or so combined


    • Thinking of keeping the same gear ratio for now of 4.56 (should be good enough for 33-35" tires, for now)
    • Leaf Springs (instead of linked) to keep it under the 10's of thousands...
    • I have a welder, tools and grinders, no torch or plasma though.

    Tom was saying you'd still want 5.29's but I cant remember his explanation. I'll find out tomorrow. I think its was because you had the 2.7

    Maybe for 37's I could see 5.29's but if I'm going 35's I think my current 4.56's would get me by until I graduate in a couple years.

    Hell if I had to I'd stick with smaller still like a 34 or even my current size, 33, I'd be fine for a couple years.

    Also, just read trail gear's install for the SAS. Seems hard, but doable over a couple weeks in the summer after work.
