    Went hiking at Mt.Baker today. Finally grabbed a level side shot to illustrate the back end after the shackle flip.

    looks nice . guess its shackle flip time. instead of 3rd aal. do you have a center of center cap to wheel well measurement. or ground to wheel well to see overall lift from shackle swap.

    if you made the drive and you buy the stuff or config up your spindle thing . ill weld it all. or let you do it if you want to try welding and so on. ill get the list in the next day or so and if you have the 3rd put together we can throw that in to . just check the drive shaft holes line up. not a problem . i would think there is more time spent in driving then doing the projects so its really up to you.

    They're not bad, we carry a few hundred pounds in the bed at all times for work plus the weight of the topper. I'm sure it could benefit from some bilstiens but it's much smoother and better handling than the worn out factory leafs were.

    What do you have right now for Springs? Worn out Springs will kill your shocks prematurely

    Not currently no, throwing them on to get back into spec and maybe going with coilovers later on.
