    Yeah, can't wait to see it, in the meantime, go check out the new "Expedition" 3" Lift Heavy Duty Rear Leaf Springs from allpro, they just put them up on their site this morning and just took the Dakars OFF their site this afternoon... lol..

    Yea I am going to research them a bit and see what others have to say about them. Are you going to get them? Do they have shocks that match those springs?

    No Idea, I sent them an email earlier asking if a good set of Fox's would work well with them since i found some for a good deal, but no response yet. They Seem to have VERY little detail on them right now, as even on the site it's only a link to them and no description.

    I do know they are made of 7 leafs that are thinner than normal to help provide flex and still handle a load. But who knows how well that will work out. I will probably get some around x-mas or so with the rest of everything i need for a decent start.

    They did say they were made to the same spec as the 98-04 ones and the description for those is on their site..

    "All-Pro's Standard Duty leaf springs are NOT designed for weight carrying capability. They are designed for ride quality and flex. For those carrying heavier loads such as rigs fully loaded for long-term expeditions, we offer the NEW All-Pro "Expedition" Heavy Duty rear springs. These were used on the and provide increased spring rate for providing a smooth ride under heavier loads."

    I'm a little worried about it saying "and provide increased spring rate for providing a smooth ride under heavier loads." Hopefully the ride quality isn't bad with not so much in the bed...

    it's because the 3 inch heavy duty springs provide that lift under load. with no load in the bed the springs will provide around 5 inches of lift, and may ride rougher.

    Updated pics.

    Almost done with the fender flares, just need to get real Line-X done to them. So I chopped the fenders about 3 inches . They are painted flat black for now. Also chopped the cab mount and cut the rear bumper back almost 5 inches to line up with the new fenders. I think she is almost ready for some 35's :cool:

    Poser pics for now. Mud pics to come later this week. Anybody know muddy Kaena point is with all this rain lately? :D

    Nice build, Saw your pics on TTORA and it had been awhile since I had checked out your thread nice work on the fenders. I am in the process of cutting my fenders and flares and plan on having the flares rhino lined but like the idea of just lining the fenders themselves like you have done.

    Headlight hoops got welded on today. I am really happy with the way they turned out. Last modification before the truck gets shipped out to San Diego.
