    You dont have to worry about the coil bucket gussets bending, you have to worry about the frame rails twisting when running long travel hard. You should build a bar the connects the top of each bucket together to stop the rails twisting. Im going to need one as well .

    Well I probably won't be getting huge air. Honestly don't think I'll be runnin it hard enough to twist the frame. You'd have to get pretty extreme to accomplish that.

    Not really, longer arms put more leverage on the frame. They twist pretty easy. Its not untill its to late that you will notice. And since your tubbing anyway you may as well leave a hole to pass a tube through the engine bay.

    Icon rear shocks
    4:88 gears & lockers out of daisy
    Front skid and tcase skid from daisy
    Fab up a tcase skid to cover duals
    Marlin 4.7 crawler
    4xinnovations DIY sliders
    Relentless rear high clearance
    Demello front and winch from daisy

    Hack up fenders
    Tub front fender wells
    Make up some inner fender liners

    I'd do it all how you got except the rear bumper, I have relentless and the fit isn't great. I'd go Pelteybilt front and rear. Im not sure how the Demello will fit on the 12+ models. Ill sell you my rear HC if your interested. I also just put in my icon ext coilovers and love them.

    I also would opt for Method 101s or 105s vs the Renegades they look much better in my opinion. Also on a white truck I think it might look cool to try an outlandish color powder-coat on them!
