    Yup, should be 1156 for you. So the link I posted earlier that says 1156 will fit.

    Hmmm how much rubbing? And how many miles are on your suspension? (Sorry for the questions, I want 32s haha)

    169k on the stock stuff. The only spot it rubs is the fender liner at the bottom rear. I'm sure it's worse with articulation but it livable on the street. A simple trim of som plastic will fix the rub. Ill flex it this weekend just to see if it does else where. Btw these are 32x11.50R15 on older factory 15x7 wheels with 3.25-3.5 (can't remeber right off hand) backspacing.

    Swapped the tranny fluid out with Redline MT-90. Big difference! I knew it would be better, but it really is night and day. Much smoother and clean.

    Eh, see my Build Thread sig link. Too many mods to list.
    Removed my sway bar last night. Drove it to work today and the ride seems a bit smoother now.

    A buddy of mine said to be really really careful as that was there for a reason and to make sure the corner doesn't go down too much during turns. I have no idea what "too much" is, so I guess I'll just have to stop worrying about it and just get used to how it drives now and hope I don't roll it or anything during my commute.

    I removed my sway bar quite some time ago and have had no issues even with my bumpers, sliders, skids and the usual stuff I have in the bed. My suspension setup is similar to yours as well.

    I have done a few things lately that I need to post. Latest was my new smoked LED tail light housings with my 7 watt CREE reverse lights. I had to laugh at the warning on the package that said "Do not stare directly into the light at distances closer than 5 meters. Eye injury may occur."

    Here is a pic of the left side lens. This picture is from this past weekend at The Slab in Montevallo, Alabama. For reference Justin is 6'6" tall. He is not pushing up on the bumper, just holding his hand to it for reference of how off camber I was.
