    You know this thread is actually filled with cool people. It never has any butt hurt or fights and its nice. All I hear about is massive amounts of butthurt in the LT thread. I will still follow here because I believe I still have lots of knowledge to share about DBs and can help people make informed decisions.

    I do read the LT thread but your right its mostly BS. MT thread is pretty informative too. I just wish I lived out towards you guys, there are absolutely no fab shops out here. I need a bed cage and SUA, search continues. :eek:

    Why Lt the rear? I mean your doing slow trails/crawling in the east. Doesn't make much sense to me?? Shackle flip/leaves/shock hoops seems plenty for flex and you won't loose bed space??

    SUA vs SOA is a debate for sure. SUA is great for getting huge amounts of droop to swallow up the whoops and off camber shit we have out here.
    My new build will be full MT with SOA. I'm going to squeeze every inch I can out if it. I learned so much with this last build and I'm excited to go into a new one with not only that knowledge, but the knowledge of my best friend that has a beast of a LT prerunner that he built in his garage.

    That is where droop is more important though. Look at Jeeps and their LCG lifts. They dont have much bump, but huge amounts of droop.
    I'm just saying that yes you can get huge amounts of droop from SUA, but SOA can get big #s also and you keep the bed.

    If you are going expo, go soa
    If you are going best of both worlds and don't care to lose the bed, go sua

    Those leafs are now under the axle and could get hung up on rocks

    I want to have an all around set up...If I transferred out to the west coast I won't have to re-do anything besides valving. :cool: Jlink's SUA flexes like a mofo. Yeah more stuff to drag on rocks but no lower then your pumpkin. :eek: Tired of re-doing stuff. Also less axle wrap.

    Not true with the axle wrap. I know SUA trucks that have it. It all comes down to angles and that shit is hard to dial in

    There was a really good diagram floating around. I can't find it:confused: Yes its all about the set up but SUA is less likely to have axle wrap issues.

    My ultimate plan is SUA/Space saver style bolt in cage with 14x2.5 or 16x2.5's.

    Might end up with something else first, maybe even a flip kit which I really dont want to do. All based on the availability of knowledgeable fabricators around here. For sure rear shocks, and my Icon hydro bumps can't wheel it like it is now
