    I'd crank them down now and when you get the tires, if you rub, then adjust accordingly. Lift doesn't matter as much as trimming. I bet you'll clear 255's as is or lower

    Oh okay thought it was 21.. Yeah you'll definitely clear 255's as is then, crank them down and you should be fine.

    Another vote for preload is evil. Sounds like you'll be happier with a 14" spring. 650 or 700

    Here is what i would do then.

    Take them off and send them to whoever to get rebuilt. have them swap in 700# 14" springs. While they are rebuilding them also tell them you want them to change them to extended travel. Standard and Ext. Travel are the same minus one limiter thingy they put inside the shock. So while rebuilding they can remove that limiter and viola you have an Ext. Travel C/O.

    Also whoever you go with tell them how you have been using the truck, what you have liked and disliked with the front suspension, and have them revalve it for you. Some place like DownSouth Motorsports is pretty experienced in that and could help you out .

    My wife saw that LC and said "THAT is what my next vehicle will look like!" I said "when do we get started?!?!?" My kids were not even paying attention as they were in the RTT on display...

    Went to Stampede pass exit on Saturday and Bob met up with us shortly after. Towards the end of the day I got myself stuck in a ditch. Underneath the snow was ice and my friend with his new Rubicon and both lockers engaged couldn't snatch me out. Last year I bought a 100 ft winch extension line and that turned out to be a very good idea. Winched out of this spot from a tree way out in front of me. :thumbsup:
