    Well, it's is the cheapest option that works. Ultimately it's the customers needs and budget. Could also have done a shackle flip with longer shackles, retaining ride quality.

    I learn something new every day!
    But a Sr5 with a couple cans of primer followed with some clear coat would do the trick! Nah, I'm just messing around.

    Why is it still rocking the factory spare? With build like that you think they could afford to mount it in the bed or something...

    God, such haters. Who gives a fuck, its their money. I have a friend who bought a 360 modena and turned it into a track car he could flog around on the weekends while others would clamor about its resale value. But...but it's a Pro! It's a truck, not the statue of liberty for christ's sake lol.

    The alignment cams are in 180° out. You have the cams pointing down towards the ground where they are vulnerable you see that big empty pocket above them , that's where that oblong cam belongs. Rotate the cam 180° the alignment will not be affected and it'll safely be tucked up in that pocket.

    How is having more ground clearance not functional? I take it you've never had to forge deep mud or water? I'd rather have those additional 6 inches in those situations. Plus real space for 35s to truly flex and he did gears. BDS makes solid kits, along with the FOX socks. Seems very functional to me.

    Thanks for the alignment info. I know we shot the video right after the installation and it hadn't been aligned yet.
