    Its set up at 52.5" hanger to hanger and bumps exactly in the stock position

    haha there is no bedcage yet. I have the tubes coming through the bed but I didnt have enough time to finish it yet. That should add some more weight to squat it down some more too

    Looking great JD.

    Few questions.
    1) Did you have to ditch the factory spare tire crossmember to get the 52.5" hanger to hanger?
    2) If so, did you add another crossmember in?
    3) Gotta close pic of the shackle hanger?

    No rush on any of the questions. I know the feeling after working on the damn truck all weekend.

    Yes, and yes, I only added one cross member at the very rear for right now. Once I get the shocks in and done I will add another one but I didnt wanna get in the way of the shocks cycling

    I can get a good pic of it when I get off work. You wanna see where its placed like in relation to holes on the frame or ?

    Yeah that should work.
    I'm guessing it's right about where the old crossmember was at.

    The front edge of the shackle hanger is almost right in line with the back of the rear hole for the back bolt on that crossmember. Make sense? I'll still get a pic later

    Perfect picture. When I measured mine to bring in the shackle hangers to 52.5 that's almost exaclty where mine would end up.
    Looks great btw!
    I owe ya a beer or few. :thumbsup:

    The picture is a little deceiving. The front of the hanger is maybe 1/2"-1/4" behind those two vertical holes. The picture almost looks like its directly in line with them

    I made them. I tacked them on and cycled the suspension to get the axle to bump in the stock position. I missed the first time and had to move them back about 2 inches

    now you see why I was so antsy :)
