    Or get daystars for $20 and run them off the top strike plate. Not as gucci but works and easier on the wallet.

    Anyone else running 285/75/16s with 885s and a Dakar leaf pack in the rear?

    How much trimming of the plastic did you have to do, and did you do a CMC to fit em?

    Quite a bit. Never weighed it but there's a lot there and I'd like to add a rear bumper st some point. There's a list of what I carry on the last page of the bushing for the front eye of the dakars thread.

    I do like these springs. They've been tortured for almost 90k miles and come right back when I unload everything. But they squat down to the point where they are almost on the bumps and I only have the overloads left when it's loaded.
