    Called Bob at Alcan yesterday. Looks like we really do not need to drive out there. I am gonna send him some pics when I get home today and we are going to measure from there.

    Loving the 35's dude. Well worth the work if you're willing! Offroading a few weeks ago really made these MTR's shine. Tires soak up all the rocks like they are pebbles and didn't even end up using a rear locker. Mind you I didn't push the truck too hard, I want to make sure I have a some spare parts before I do so.. (cv axle, outer Tie Rod, ujoints, etc.)

    Are you planning on stepping up to 35's soon?

    Good to hear!

    I will for sure be running 35's but I would like to regear first and get a LT kit for the front. I also like the look of 17"s with 35's better so I will hold out until I can get some Methods.

    I don't really want to run 35's on stock gears very much

    Also took some measurements for custom Alcans with Gramps... Last piece of the puzzle before I can redo the rear suspension.

    How are you doin man? Gonna make it out to moab this year?

    Bill ford up at Alcan is making my springs right now they should be done in a week or so and then I will have all the parts :woot:

    Basically had him add 1" to the length of the springs for the shackle flip which is what he recommended
    Bill at Alcan and made them for 2.5" of lift for a total of 3.5" in the rear. Also a 500lb weight capacity until they will sag.

    I'll post pics when I get them

    Got in a little fender bender last night.
    This bumper is ruthless.
