Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

no, there's close to 2" at lock

 

Hey bro thanks for the picture.

 

She goes.

Fit with no rubbing on street. Don't have time to get into proper clearancing today, but probably next weekend. Tubbing for sure required, but shouldn't be too bad. Clears the spindle with a finger width the whole way, 4.75bs

 

hood struts ftw

 

long travel hood! it goes waaaay high haha.

 

Looks beast!! Awesome! I guess 37s is what you need to make that land yacht of a CCLB look good!

 

It helps

 

Looks really good, if you install the slide rack you can push the lowers all the way forward and the 37’s will clear with a CMC

 

I may be interested in the stock lowers

 

Yeah that's exactly what it looks like. Obviously still need to tub the top of the wheel well. Cab mount is relocated so no worries there.

You'll see my Slide rack and rear SUA kit order sometime in the new year!

 

How is the JD fab LCA kit for a daily driver? I don’t plan on going LT, but wanna run 35s.

 

Its fine as a daily driver mod...cant feel a difference in actuality.

 

this. its a preventative measure to deal with the weak factory LCA mounts for off-road use. when combined with the other components, especially the steering rack is when it gets good.... really, really good. no bump steer. My truck is totally different truck, and a pleasure to drive. It actually turns when I move the steering wheel.

 

How’s your truck feel as a daily driver with the sua and LT front?

 

I drive it as often as possible. Its solid, suspension is way more capable than I expected (already had high hopes), no drama and it's a pleasure to drive. It's like a completely different truck and I am incredibly happy and grateful for JD and their products but more importantly their guidance and how they developed this package.

LT is not just about wider and more travel. I will argue with anyone I got WAY more than my money's worth. I learned a ton, they are incredibly easy and down to earth to work with and most important, their products and process are top notch.

Just not enough good things to say about them and how this all turned out. It is not a client/manf relationship, it feels more like gaining an extended family.

It took longer than expected, I ended up starting off with just wanting the LCA kit and install but reading through this thread, learned that if you are going to do LT, do it right and find the right people who know this process inside and out. Their main business is bespoke luxury prerunners and trophy truck-level builds, and that experience shows up every time I get behind the wheel and hammer the dirt.

Sorry for the wordy response and gushing on JD to a simple question but honestly, it's not so simple, and it's easy to miss the important fundamentals that made this into an incredibly enjoyable and capable truck



There's so much awesome sauce going on here. When a picture is truly worth more than a thousand words...

 

2015 DCSB with 34s is my daily driver and having the LCA kit with their stock uppers improved the quality of my ride, plus all of the other added benefits the kit brings to the table.

 

What wheel/tire combo are you running? Considering the LCA mount, stock lower, JD stock length upper, upper dbl sheer brackets and spindle reinforcement. Shock?

 

Not to take away from the OP but I'm placing an order for LT and would be willing to cut a deal on their UCAs meant for the LCA mounts. I got the ones with the dual heim pivots. Never installed minor scratch from when shipped to me.

 

Method 17X8.5 0offset 4.75BS with BFG KO2 285/75-17 E rated. I'm re-geared at 4:56. I have their LCA kit, UCAs, Double sheer steering gussets and spindle gussets. I'm on Fox 2.5 with Icon RXT leaf. My AT Habitat camper is on full time and I have bumpers, skids and sliders. My all up weight is 5920lbs (3140rear/2780front). Kasnerd and I could start the 81Trekker fan club. Harry is the most down to earth, righteous dude you will ever meet. I'm an old guy with a dog who likes to wheel. I'm not a desert runner or a rock basher but I do like to get where I'm going and then back home again. He listened to my wants, needs and desires, offered solid guidance and a total solution overcoming some of the bad decisions I had already made. I could not be happier.
