    Thanks I'll try to look into that! Locker would be great for me as I always find myself with one wheel in the air... Maybe it's my crappy driving lol. How you like your locker while your on the road?

    Go with an arb air locker if its your DD

    Bumper, skids and winch will definately help add some weight and make the springs not ride so stiff. Ome 880's and matching shocks probably wouldnt be bad at all

    All good points above. 880's would probably be good for you, then the armor will soften the ride for sure. Locker is great for sure. You mentioned having it on the road? Never leave it on while on pavement. That's a good way to blow it up if you don't want to go straight forever.

    Thats awesome. Those coolers are worth every penny too if you really need the ice to last as long as possible

    This was a few years ago, but in this pic was running 5100/881s, Wheeler's 5 Pack + AAL. and 265/75s. Fairly close to that:

    What we're your opions on the front set up? How much lift did you gain over stock? Did you put a spacer on driverside for taco lean? Currently my front is stock coils with 5100s preloaded to 2.5 but I know I don't get the full 2.5 because I have noticeable rake
