    True, sounded terrible when it was hitting the fender when stuffed.

    I'm tempted to tub for 33s since I hate it so much. I also hate not being able to turn much when fully stuffed. That or tub for 35s since I pretty sure my next set of tires will be 35s.

    Dang, idk what I'm going to do. I'm hitting the mudflap bolts on the front just when turning, can only imagine what would happen when stuffed haha. I need to do something about it. Maybe just sent well placed hammer shots.

    Also think I'm going to lower the front an inch..

    Just pull the front mud flaps off. Might as well pull the rear off as well. I'll be making detachable mudflaps one day, but that more or less when ever I choose to.

    The lower the better :cool: I prefer down travel over up travel, even with the little we IFS users get.

    Thanks again gents. Wheeling will be done. 33s will be stuffed. Whatever carnage is necessary for this to happen is fine. I think I'll start by ordering the axle relocate.:thumbsup:

    Yeah i liked having my rear ones but when I went up to 285/75r16's they were contacting the mud flaps at ride height. I just took them off so they didn't get destroyed. Maybe I'll figure out a way to put some back on later.

    What U-Bolts are you using? Will the Old Man OMEU53A work with this block you added?

    Nope, just lines and the kit. Needed to trim the dust shield a little bit.

    Some people said the bolts were a bit to long but I didn't have that issue...
