    Alex, how did you treat the inside of your frame after boxing to prevent rust?

    How did you apply it?

    Sealing the inside of a plated frame has always been something that worries me.


    Sick vid by the way!! Can barely see that rear tire at one point! Haha!

    Hey, love your build and its a large inspiration to how Im dreaming mine up. For your front LT, what CV axles did you use?

    That video is sweet by the way! how do your tires even fit that far into the wheel wells?!

    yup, however the tire at full stuff will still hit the cubby. lol I just received my AAL from Deaver, so hoping to install tomorrow and it might keep the up travel down a tad bit.

    The result, raised the rear by 1 & 1/4". Might have to add another...

    Aluminum bumpers aren't as strong but look just as good and would be much lighter. Thats what I would do but with the type of offroading you do that aluminum one might not fit your needs.

    This is what I was thinking..ideas?

    Yeah. I was thinking of going with what Jason mentioned, tube bumper with swingout. but use some aluminum on the outside to give the look of the plate to match the front.
