    Huge thanks to @Arcticelf for rebuilding my weeping kings and swapping the coils :hattip:
    700# springs were definitely a right move. Truck seems a little stiffer, but feels sooo much better through the turns.
    Still might have to fiddle with clicker settings to balance things out better, but I'm way happier with the setup now.
    Thanks again :D

    15" of travel, limited by the CV angle. And the tire clears the firewall.

    Now for a UCA.

    No, new rear end. Full float Ford 9 with D60 unit hubs.

    The front is still going LT.

    do you know what angle the stock cvs bind up at? Also 3.5” over lt? Looks rad, been trying to piece things together to build my own, aiming for 12-14” and hoping to stay at 2” over.

    24deg I think. The inner binds first.

    Thanks, it's 1.5" over stock width on each side, so basically the same track width I had before with 1.5" spacers to clear my tires on the uca.

    Full stuff with +1.5 j-arms, 934 CVs, steering and spindles.

    Next step is shock towers, bump cans, and gusseting the spindles.

    I know it’s not aligned yet but that seems like a lot of camber change. There going to be enough alignment adjustment to address that?

    That's actually pretty close to aligned.

    It's sitting at -.5 deg camber at ride height, - 12 deg or so at full bump and .5 deg at full droop. It goes from -4 to -12 in the last ~3" of travel, so I think it's just something to live with. The bump steer looks good though, and so does the caster.
