    Damn, I'm at that now on IFS, or is it 21? I guess it depends on what side of the truck i measure LOL, stupid taco lean and twisted frame.

    I don't even know what ill be at post swap, using fj 60 rear springs with the shackle facing forward is uncharted territory with these trucks.

    Just measured and I am at 24.375" frame height at the front cab mount, and that is on 35's

    It actually drives pretty good at highway speeds. It tracks very straight, and can take both hands off the wheel and it will continue to go in a straight line. I usually just keep one finger on the wheel.

    I'm right at 2500 rpm's at 65 mph. It can run 70, but I usually don't.

    Yeah... like I said, 23" +/-. I was close to your numbers in front due to the bumper & winch. It was definitely lower in the front compared to the rear.

    I'll get an exact number this weekend hopefully... then give it a month for the new coils to settle a bit.

    Trimmed the front bumper down today along with a little bit of the fender. Ended up hacking 3.5" off where the tire was contacting it at full compression.

    Haha, I always seem to look at the GPS to see how fast I'm going anymore. I rarely ever look at the speedometer. It's funny how quickly that became the norm.

    Threw together the spare tire mount and tossed in my 24 gallon action packer and 60 quart cooler.... It's like I actually knew what I was doing when I built the bed because everything fits like a glove

    I like the "more storage, less dovetail" as well as the other items, but you seem to have left the most critical mod off the list:

    -removing the radials and replacing them with Super Swampers (LTBs, SXs, Boggers) :D
