    Are your shackle angles almost vertical?

    Posted a pic of my shackle angle in my build thread. Little better than your but about the same. Once your springs settle, you'll be fine.

    Damn OP your expedition rig is turning into a beast! :eek: I love the way your build is going and the new lift looks great! Can't wait to see what's next after the rear bumper!?! :popcorn:

    Speaking of bumpers, did I miss the part where boxrocket is fabing up a swivel carrier for your rear bumper? Is he now offering this as a service to all TW members? :eek: The rear bumper with swivel that he has going on his build really caught my eye and the fab work and designs that he comes up seem top notch.

    So did you get your front ARB locker installed yet? I came across an excellent build thread on the expo portal where the OP, Trump, retrofits a OEM RR locker switch into a "FR locker switch" and then wires it up to control his ARB front locker. This retrofit just f*ckin amazes me:

    If you havent already seen his build, click the pic and check it out!!!

    He also has full details on how he did the FR locker switch mod on TTORA I think this guy has some pretty SICK mods on his build and I believe he also has the same OCD issues I do lol. I plan to borrow/steal some of his awesome ideas for my build once I have the $ to finally get a good quality lift installed on my rig. :D Keep up the good work! :)

    Paul, do you want your spare tire mount angled a bit like your old one or straight up vertical like mine?

    Thanks for the link. Really clean! ARB is being installed this week. Box is making me a rear bumper. I don't think he is taking orders based on the hold on the bed racks. Next is relocating my rear shocks and some frame stiffening plates. Also a sleeping deck in the bed of the truck and cleaning up some of the wiring.

    Adjusted the front a bit. A little less rake. Still need to adjust it based on the rear bumper

    Also snapped some pictures of the jasper offroad pods. Bought their wiring harness, plug and play. Adjusted the hella black magics, moved them up so they are more centered behind the grill.

    HELP!

    Now that I feel that my build is getting somewhere, I want to work on my parts and tools that I carry with me on wheeling/camping trips. If you guys have any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. Providing links to tool sets you suggest, spare parts you suggest would be awesome. If something breaks, I want to be able to get home.

    Take all the sockets you used on your truck and buy a second set to keep in the truck. Now the same with the wrenches, a heavy hammer, pry bar and a couple power/ air tools.
