    I'm not a huge fan of a welded lower like shown in those pictures. I would prefer the traditional all aluminum eyelet with spherical bearing/ snap rings pressed into said eyelet.

    Are you planning on running those for the front? I see you got the 90's threaded into the shock top cap for those.

    Edit: Based on those extended/ collapsed numbers I would actually venture a guess to say you will be running those in the rear. Are you running a shock relocation on your frame Wishbone?

    That's what I figured but I didn't know. The guy worked with DSM so maybe that was his only option there

    Correct, they are for the rear. And yes, I am going to cut out all of the stock mounts and weld in new mounts that use eyelet mounting. Not sure I understand you on the welded lower, it uses the same spherical as the aluminum one, just results in a shorter overall length.

    Do you know the lengths on those shocks? I am surprised you don't need either extended bumps with a longer shock, or the shock tops out from being too short with the MT springs.

    Everyone has different opinions as what "mid travel" is. Hard to say. In my opinion:
    Front: extended travel coil over up front
    Aftermarket UCA's

    Rear:
    Aftermarket leaf pack
    Shock relocation

    My brother (geek) has leafs and ucas but is considered mid. Which is why I asked. We don't have the relocation or extended installed but it's in progress lol. Damn money.

    Quick question.. I have an sr5. Ordered gears and lockers through ecgs and I told them I'm not a sport, don't have the elocker, I'm an sr5. On my receipt they put down I have an 8.4" rear diff, but I thought that was only on sports? Or does the sr5 come with the 8.4" as well?
