    Just change it up some, mainly didn't want to cut it at the fenders. No sense In ruining a perfectly good bumper.

    Yes that's the one.

    Thanks!!

    Your truck is godlike!

    I have a question I've been wondering about the long travel kits for some time now, can you take it to any old shop to have it aligned? Or should it be somewhere with some specialized experience? Do you still align it to stock spec? I was just wondering what jiffy lube would think when you bring something like that in to get it aligned...

    I would take it to a reputable shop. My roommate has done alignments for years so him and I aligned it at his work. Everything is stock spec minus caster I think. The kit has x amount of caster built into it and you align from there. I think. I'd have to look at the manual again lol

    I was curious how the truck feels with LT up front and your rear? Do you plan to LT the rear at all?

    It feels great honestly. Little softer around the corners but Ive been used to that since I removed the sway bar a while before going LT. I'm planning on going LT in the rear, just decided if I want to go with Leafs or 4 link and coils. I use the truck to tow alot and end up with a ton of crap in the bed from time to time so I'm not too sure what route to go yet.

    Put some sweet decals on last night. At least a 12hp gain.

    Sounds good man, right now I got a TC mid travel SUA which works for what I am doing now. If I ever went LT in the rear, I was looking into Giant's set up, but DMZ is pretty solid too. Would having a 4 link take up any bed space?

    Realistically a 4 link should take up any bed space as the link bars should be under the truck. Now the coilover mounting and bracing may go into the bed some.

    Instead of leaf springs and a shock you have 4 link bars, 2 uppers two lowers.
