    smack those resi mounts in right at the bend with a rubber mallet in one hand as you tighten the back bolt (have snug already) and then do the front bolt next. May help with rubbing.

    seems he has similar tastes in coils and color. I want those Yokohama tires. Looks nice.

    rake is good man, helps with braking and handling (function over form). I am also at 1” with icon leaf pack and 700# 14” coils. Truck looks good

    Spring ;) for a set of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0039K4AJA

    Worth every penny. I've used them on the truck, off the truck, on other people's trucks. The third arm clamps around the coil so it can't go flying off and they work on 2.5" shocks.

    I can find info on Kangs and Faxes (won't put those names on this thread out of respect) but I didn't see anything on Accutune or ADS' sites for these. I only know one guy locally who runs them and his isn't a daily anymore so I can't compare. I daily my truck 80% of the time and 18% rock crawling 2% dirt road.

    FOX and KING :D

    30-50k is about right. Nice little video that goes over signs of needing a rebuild if you're interested.

    Thanks. Probably going with the rtx leafs. Seems like best bang for the buck when you get 3 configurations out of the box
