    still won't fit when you upgrade to 33+ tars. Might as well take the pesky rubber out of the way now. :cheers:

    I'd actually love to mount the spare in the bed against the front rail, but that pesky tonneau is in the way. Can't justify getting rid of the tonneau... not yet at least.

    A tire on the hood has way more IG cred than a skewp! And the girls will be thrilled with your dedication to the rubber.

    What is the difference between these and the Archive Garage hangers?

    Not sure if this is a serious question, but I'll treat it like one...

    BAMF
    Less expensive
    Maintains original leaf mounting location (no lift from hanger)
    Amazing customer service

    Thanks Bert, yes it was serious. I have BAMF sliders and am aware they are a kickass company.

    Do these perform the same to take the jitters out and improve the overall ride of the rear end?

    Yes, ultimately they both perform the same function. I suppose one could argue one works better than the other, but that would be very subjective and there's a lot of variables (leaf pack, shackles, lift, other mods, weight...)

    Do I have to drill out the shackle hole to 9/16, or can I use the Dobinsons greasable bolt I already have since I just bought new OEM shackles and made them greasable. See attached

    Here's a visual comparison that shows where the lift with AG comes from.

    You need to run the bolt the other direction with our hanger so no that zerk fitting will get knocked off most likely.

    Was there any specific reason you went stock vs a added lift version? Mainly curious that would mess up with my relocate setup but did not realize that difference.
