    Yeah, I'm pretty satisfied with it.

    Maybe someone with a 3" lift could measure their ground clearance as a point of reference?

    lol, the diff is lower in relation to the LCA mounts. it means I can have higher a-arm angles with lower CV angles and better clearance in the middle. The clearance is really only better on the side. Where the mini skid is, it's the same.

    Since the diff is now the lowest point on the front end now, I'm going to get a custom skid plate right up on that thing and have a smooth belly all the way across.

    I hope to get my crossmember sucked up to the bottom of the frame and get some square tubing bracket reinforcement bars to replace the shite ones that came with the kit.

    Nope. When I ordered from 4xinnovations there was a misunderstanding and Adam accidentally sent me the double cab sliders. He's been easy to work with on correcting the problem, but the size I need isn't in stock, so it may take a few weeks. They should definitely be here before NM though.

    Sorry, they were able to call them back in transit
    Sorry man, we'll get you fixed up. Maybe having tires with tread will help.
