    Both of my tail lights are covered, my passenger tail light especially. I wouldn't worry about it. If I haven't gotten a ticket living in California, you should be fine.

    Wow you haven't? I've heard of people getting a ticket for having those older style ram tail light covers on because they cover more than 50% of the tail light. That was one person and a while ago so it may have just been a douchey cop.

    I also want to raise the spare up so it won't drag coming off ledges. I'd probably be fine with it on but we'll see. In the summer my tent then covers my third brake light so that leaves one visible..

    How did you end up fastening your BORA wheel spacers in the rear? The lug nuts that came with mine only get about 1/4-3/8" of thread contact. I'm looking into getting longer studs or lug nuts that will fit into the machined holes in the spacers.....

    Im just using the lugs that came with it. As long as you use red loctite and torque them properly you shouldn't have any problems. I rechecked the torque not too long ago and since august none of them loosened up at all

    I still haven't fully flexed mine out yet. Still dialing it in but want to get the rear ready and then match the front to it

    But I bet I'd still hit bump

    Well you have 700's too right? If then there would be no difference assuming we both have no skids on. I have about 2 turns of preload on mine.

    What are you doing to the rear?

    Yeah they flex really well for being such a thick leaf pack

    I wish I could have gotten 650lb springs but King doesn't make 3.0 16" 650lb springs :(
