    I am running 265/75/16 stock and only rub on the frame at full lock. I did have to cut plastic though.

    Didn't actually do anything, but i did get to check out a 2nd gen with an engage 4 link long travel setup with kings all around. It was pretty ridiculous, definitely not many trucks like that in Texas.

    You can fit that size tire fine with the correct wheel. Looks like your running a 10" spacer on 10" wide wheels.

    The only thing I would worry about is radiator protection, especially in the winter (though I don't think that's a concern for you in your area). When breaking through icy puddles this year I was really worried about getting a chunk of ice in my rad.

    a 2" AAL :cool:

    Cali life :D lol

    I will most likely be going wth a TG bumper, or relentless if I decide to go with plate rather than tube. So this is temporary

    Now that throws a wrench right in to my somewhat thought out plan. I was gonna drop close to $400 on dakars for the rear even though they may be on back order. Is cost the only advantage to your aal's? Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse.

    Yup, pretty much the only reason I did an AAL. I will deff be going with a full leaf setup down the road. For now the AAL is sufficient.

    Bone stock. For now.
    Maaaaaaaan, that looks good!! I've been thinking about doing something similar to mine. I may just cut the sides off and leave the middle section of plastic. You may have just given me my weekend project!
