    Everything is soo clean! I have to crank mine up about an 1" in the front to get it close to level. I think I got about an 1 1/4" up front.

    Regular bumps aren’t adjustable but you can stack washers to get varying height if needed. Once you get your new setup, stuff and stretch it and measure the shock extended and compressed and get a bump that will save it from topping out. Super bumps, Duro and timbrens are all good options. Hydro bumps might be adjustable I’m not sure as i haven’t Even gone down that rabbit hole yet.

    Yep 5/16 should be a few options down below in Amazon links. Or just hit up Home Depot Or something and find a decent handled one.

    700#. I was going for 2.5-2.75”. Over shot just a bit because I was worried about the weight of the bumper and winch. Will dial it back a little this weekend.

    Great! I top out a little more than I want to. Preload doesn’t affect the ride quality.
