    ...too much shit to list.
    Again there's no generic answer.
    That's why you cycle the suspension and have a tape measure handy.

    When it droops the axle moves forward. Thus..more plunge..thus..the need to shorten it

    How is the front diff handling it? I assume its still completely factory?


    Any chance you'd share the spring rate he is running?

    How did I forget! I'm cool with my midtravel numbers for now, but DTF's kit is a beautiful piece of art.

    yeah, for real. I like to think I contibuted to that kit since I gave him my stock lowers years ago as a starting point :p

    Unrelated, I've noticed a popping kind of noise when I turn my wheel when i'm stationary or slow. I can sort of feel it in the steering wheel. I can't tell if its my cage just flexing or something with the steering rack or even something else. I have noticed the driver side boot coming off the steering rack is covered in some oil...that might of been from an oil change though.
