    Love this build, but have not read it all. How do you like the +2 LT? Does it move the wheel forward to help with tire clearance at the firewall?

    Thanks dude! And kind of, mainly just has the ability to add a lot of caster if you want. I'm at 4-4.5 degrees but anymore and I'd definitely rub the front bumper (if not already) so there is a thing of too much.
    I love the long travel though. Not lifting a tire nearly as much anymore off road

    Cool! I might consider it in my long term planning. I didn't want to increase track width, but if I am going to need a spacer to get the tire off the frame when I move up another size or two I'd rather put the extra track width to good use!

    Exactly! Between tire width, LT, and new wheel specs I gained about 5-6" per side from my MT and 33's to LT and 35's

    Per side!? ouch. I am running 33x12.5's now on some aftermarket rims that poke a little further out than stock ones... my hope would be only adding 2" per side with the +2 LT kit. (I'm thinking I already have the tire and rim width you mentioned.)

    I used to have 285's on 4.5" bs 0 offset wheels, then I went to 315's on 3.5" bs -25mm offset wheels. I'm about 83-84" wide

    83-84" is great info. I'll measure mine tomorrow and see what I'm at for comparison. Thanks.

    Yeah that's a rough measurement. May be more may be less but a good amount of my tire sticks out past the flare

    Sounds like balls. Mine did that. The lube has to work its way through all the pieces
