    It'll be late spring before they go on. Gotta pick up my sliders. Get my brake setup on, wheels studs and maybe spacers, body mounts and maybe a .5" body lift, destroy my cab mount, tie rods, CV rebuild and possibly glass fenders if I don't come up with something else. I'll need them regardless in the next year or 2. After all that and the tires get installed I'm gonna regear myself. No locker. No need to dump that much money into a stock axle IMHO when it's gonna get replaced eventually anyway.

    Also got a daily driver in the works to keep this thing off the highway. I did 800 miles this weekend to VA and back and it suuuuucked

    Negative on Moab lol I doubt I'll ever go. Possibly gulches though. I've got a metric shit ton of work to do on my truck. It's barely driveable right now.

    But right now it looks like the truck isn't getting anymore mods. I might be buying a new toy in the coming weeks

    Hopefully everything works out financially and I can take it off his hands and keep my truck exclusively for expo and daily driving and everything else this would be for. I'd have to dump almost 20k in my truck to get as close as capable as that beast

    How do you like the Fox 2.0 coilovers? On/off road ride quality ok? And how much lift did you get out of them? (Do is see a top plate spacer up front?) Sorry for all of the questions, can't seem to find many people with them...

    No top plate spacer but I got 2in with the heavy front bumper and a little bit of cranking to counteract the weight but I'm happy with them. I think theyre the best bang for your buck coilovers out there @ChamYota has them and loves them too maybe he can chime in aswell

    Thanks for the info, I'm stuck between those coilovers w/ 2.0 resi's in the back and a full OME setup. Expensive decisions suck. Do you ever wish you had went with more lift? And any diff drop/UCA's necessary?

    You can run without UCAs but I got them anyway just to be easy. I'm not running a diff or carrier bearing drop but I think a carrier bearing drop would help with my vibes. Personally I'd do the coilovers with 2.0 resis. I'm extremely happy with my decision. And if you want more height you could do a heavier coil and crank them up some

    I second this. Most people dont NEED the 2.5 more expensive coilovers. I think the 2.0 is a nice sweet spot with the same adjustablity advantages, i like the ride and the price was pretttty good at the time of purchase
