    David has more mod money in his hands in that picture than I have on my entire truck.

    Now you need 12" rears to complement the fronts

    One thing at a time.

    What about the King 3.0 bypasses for the rear

    Interesting! How’d you determine the angle and the lower shock mount placement? Is there a good thread on here for it?

    BAMF recommends 10 degree angle so I used a magnetic angle tool(don't know what its called). I then measured my full bump travel and added an inch to the shaft so that way its impossible to destroy the shock from too much bump. I tacked everything in place, measured again, mounted shock and check actual clearances then removed shock and welded up towers and mounts.

    Here's droop and the shocks have more to go but the springs are the limiting factor now.

    This is me with just Dakar’s and B110. Pretty darn good which is why I’m hesitant to go through the effort and expense of relocation.

    Right that's pretty good droop for what it is. The biggest difference was getting kings though. I was running 5125's and it rides like a completely different truck. The rear keeps up with the front now too. I was considering going the B110 route and then @Coot83 pulled the trigger on his LT so I called dibs on his setup. I could go different springs and get more droop out of it but I'll do that once these take a shit. The Allpro expos are just fine for now.
