    ^ That sumbitch is wide! Those tires have a fantastic rubber compound. I have the military version and love them, even though I can't do burnouts anymore. Too much traction. :D

    4.56 will get you back to stock, or 4.88 for more grunt at the cost of some freeway mileage. Not that it will ever be "good" with our rigs.
    I went through ECGS. They ship you a complete third in a bucket, and you send your old one back to them. Great warranty and you can't get gears installed locally for the price of a complete third through them. http://eastcoastgearsupply.com/c-62270-assembled-3rds-clamshells.html

    What do you guys think about this?
    Sorry it will only let me post one picture at a time.

    I tried to tighten the bolts for the shackles when the back tires were at full droop but barely touching the ground still. I don't have a torque wrench. But I used a giant ass ratchet and could not budge them at all.

    Also during full articulation the shackles rub the frame. Should I put like big washers on the bowl to space out the shackle a little bit?
    All of the bushings on my shackles pretty much look like that.

    You can't tighten you're bolt because it's probably seized. That's what happened both time's mine were. See if you can get it out. & change those bushing's and see if that helps.

    Why not replace them with new bushings?
