    Full leaf pack is superior in every way to an aal. Go dakars or all pro leaf packs.

    Did you like the icons? Considering getting a stage 4. Why did you go kings this time? You have a very nice rig, keep the photos coming.

    So far I am satisfied wth Dakars. They do ride kinda stiff, but once I load the rear with more weight it should ride better. The tires are 295/70/17 Cooper STT Pros. I haven't tested them off road yet, but on road they are pretty sticky but fairly loud.

    Stock gearing for now. Looking to upgrade in the future.

    Icons were nice. I switched to kings because I got a good deal on the set. Thanks for the compliment

    Dude your truck is sick. Did you leave your kings at the factory settings or did you have to crank them higher to clear your STT pros?

    I had to adjust them to get an additional lift. I have to do it again with the bumper and winch on now, or I may just get 650# coils

    This is one of my favorite builds! How's your spare tire mounted to the rack? And are you able to mount the RTT with the spare like that?

    Thank you sir! I had a spare carrier welded on with a bolt off attachment point. The tire barely clears the RTT.. somehow it came out to be a perfect fit!
