    One tweak at a time! We'll see how some offset wheels help out and then go from there. I really like this tire size! Still waiting on my RCI steel skids too.

    I Really appreciate the help today at TD! Learning this stuff can be overwhelming, so having some good advice is golden. I went all out - buy once cry once. The suspension was worth every penny (so far).

    I'm gonna give it a shakedown this weekend and see what happens. I'm taking my Dremel with me :D

    You should see the door damage from stump cave!

    We just took it out and drove around, unfortunately I'm still rubbing the cab mounts when we're scooting around parking lots.
    So, now the question is... -6mm offset or 0 offset wheels. I need to clear the SPC UCAs

    You could also adjust those front coil overs. Be a bit taller

    Yeah, interesting idea. We'd have to compress them and adjust the preload. I've seen guys running as high as 30mm. I'm at 20mm now.
    I think I'd rather do a CMC because IF the preload adjustment doesn't do it, we'd have to CMC anyway

    Also, I think it’s silly they don’t come with a spanner wrench like fox or icon. Just my 2 cents...

    The bp51 kit came with 2 spanners. I played with the adjustments today. I haven't made changes yet though

    Oh then you shouldn’t have to compress the spring. Just get the weight off the front end. I could be wrong about this though as I’ve never actually messed with height adjustment on them. I know some require the coil to be compressed

    I think these fall into that category from my reading. But I'll look into it further
    Edit: the spanners are to adjust the compression and rebound. To adjust the preload, you have to compress the spring. And there's something that makes this spring tricky to compress... I've read about broken compressors and bent springs :facepalm:

    0 offset is still 4.5" backspace. 4" seems to be the magic number for that, with 285 and up.
    I'd still CMC tho

    Just get wheels with 3.5 backspacing and thank me later when you want to upgrade to 35s without spacers
