    lol they do their job. Somewhat. A few hundred pounds and they're arched negatively. Oh well.

    As for that measurement, I am getting just under 22 inches from hub center to bottom of fender flair.

    Yeah, I figgered many would chime in along those lines..and honestly I might still keep to that regime as well.... I guess my peace of mind is knowing the engine is loving life after wallowing in its own juices for 7K of hard miles :thumbsup:

    No lift on this what so ever. Netted almost 6 inches of height by suspension upgrade (OME), 17 inch rims, and 265/70/17R

    Thanks man still a work in progress. Sliders and exterior lights (led light bars) will finish it up. I just learned I need to replace front axels though due to boots being torn and slinging grease ever where. Any suggestions out here on budget front axels.

    Where are you located? I'd recommend CVJ remans, company is located in Denver. http://www.cvjreman.com/

    If the only thing wrong with your axles is torn boots, I'd just re-boot them yourself and keep on keepin' on.
