    You gonna do a write up on your rear relocation project? Because you're probably gonna get yours done way before I do, and I'll need all the help I can get!

    Judging yours with no experience on my part just seems like the right thing to do.

    By the way, are you planning on ever plating or boxing your frame?

    I'm seriously considering pulling my bed and doing that along with the rear shocks all at once.

    Yeah thinking I may just plate it....as I rarely have huge amounts of weight in the bed....FROR has a nice kit for $79

    Good call! I think I'm gonna go full OCD and box as much as I can, then plate it, then paint it all while the bed is off. I do a lot of loaded for bear camping and stuff, so I want to do it and not worry about it again. I also have to fab a crossmember for my crawler, so all of that might happen at once.

    One side benefit that I've heard is that it's much easier to dial in the shock valving once the frame isn't flexing like crazy. Between that and the loads that mine will see, it just makes sense.

    If I had the welding skills...I would totally box my frame and do a lot of things, build a swingout....etc but since I depend on others to do the welding I'm kinda limited as to what happens in that department. Especially with your truck being such damn low miles (Jealous AF) that thing is gonna last you a looooong time so the beefier you make it the less worry down the road.

    I'm in the same boat with the welding. Gotta have buddies help until I save up for a MIG setup. One of these days...

    Dude, you are gonna love the King coilovers! I've seen both those and the Toytec BOSS coilovers in person, and the Kings are just such better fit and finish. It's money well spent.

    Now our trucks are REALLY gonna be twins, Rob!
