    Thanks! I'm kicking myself right now for not buying those LR UCA's you had for sale.

    Finally pulled the trigger on some new rear leafs. I got the skyjacker tr39s's with Energy polyurethane bushings for the eyelets and the shackles. I am using the el cheapo shocks that came with my Rough Country lift so i dont really care when i break them in half because then it gives me an excuse to get some 5125's. I think they are sx 8000's (?) something like that... anyways these springs were a pain to install. I had to torch out the front bolts of each spring and burn out the old rear/shackle bushings. Then the inner metal sleeves for the new bushings did not fit over the OE bolts, no big deal really.

    and a freshly painted rear diff.
    also, an overly edited photo to show the amount of rake. Not too happy hopefully it will break in more as time passes. I have some 3/8" spacers for the front, but I'm waiting to put em on until I get some aftermarket UCA's. Steering can be a little sketchy at times with the alignment specs and the stock UCA's maxed out.
