    Well still need to finish up the bumper and tire gate. But LT parts showed up so that has taken priority. One side done other than brake lines. Tear down the drivers side tomorrow and finish it up Thursday is the plan.

    Well other than me being terrible at doing my own alignment it's all together and what an improvement over the mid travel set up. Home alignment should get me by while everything settles into its happy place so I can retorque everything and get a proper alignment.

    Thanks man. Old shocks are gonna get cleaned up this weekend so you and/ or rashnu and I can work out a way to meet up for payment and exchange. You'll be much happier with the 650 springs

    Yep those will do it. They put me on 700lb springs on the LT kit :eek: Put about an inch of preload on them and I'm 1.5" taller than I was with the mt set up and sitting pretty close to 60/40 up/down travel. 15" of ground clearance to my front skid.

    Made a quick little hi-lift mount over the weekend. Probably going to add a shovel and ax mount to the inside of the bed face pending any potential interference with the bed cage when I get it. Just need to figure out what I want to use to secure them.

    Well no shocks yet, but I have garage time and a spare car for the next two weekends. So to work we go. Everything that bolts on has been removed. Tomorrow brings a lot of cutting and grinding to get the frame and axle cleaned up. Hopefully sitting on its own legs again by the end of the day tomorrow. And should be 90% done and driveable by next weekend until I get the right shocks in

    Hell of a difference between the sua springs and allpros. Surprised the allpros are still in such good shape with good arch. IMG_1188.jpg

    Frame is stripped and leaf hangars are in. Just need to finish stripping the axle tomorrow and she'll be sitting under her own legs again.

    Hopefully won't be too noticeable hanging below the high clearance bumper lol
