    Turned out great man! It'll settle a bit over time so that might level out the rake. Have you got w chance to check clearance of the tires to the shock bodies under flex?

    Did some clearance checking today. Looks like I'm rubbing on the shock body. Not to worry I have Bora 3/4" wheel spacers. That should hopefully remedy that problem. I'm also not contacting the the bumpstop with the frame. Probably about 1/4" away. Looks like I'm gonna need some type of bumpstop spacer. Nate87 did you use a spacer of some sort? Couple people have suggested a 2" spacer. Hopefully @bullaculla can help me out. After that everything should be good to go. Here's a few photos.

    Thanks fellas! It was hard work and a PITA but I'm so happy on how everything turned out. What would u guys save for next? Upgrade front suspension to keep up with rear or gears with rear air locker?

    You ever run the tires low pressure? It might bulge a lot more and rub so the 3/4 spacer might not be enough.

    That's true. I never thought about that. I'll run it with the 3/4" spacer for now and I'll report here if I still run into some rubbing.

    Is that the farthest it can droop in that picture? Looks like it can droop a couple more inches.

    I had about 2 more inches to go but didn't want to go any further for fear of breaking something on the other side.

    From looking at your set up, my guess would be that your bumps are not contacting because of your leaf pack. Did you remove a few leafs? They don't look as thick as the AP leafs I'm running. For me, at full compression I have about an inch of shock left. You will probably need to space them out the way you are running them now unless the tires contacting the shock body is whats preventing further flex/articulation. If that's the case then the 3/4" spacer should be plenty to clear. I'm only running 15mm(.59") Bora spacers and I'm clear. But I guess it all depends on where the mounts were welded up.
