    Nice. I love wheelers off-road. They send you a little bag of candy with your package when you order something

    Because I'm lazy and follow too many builds. What are you doing with the relocate?

    Edit: I remember now! You're doing the BAMF & King 12". What are you going to do about dem Icons up front?

    Also will it be flexed and measured properly or just thrown up? :)

    Hahaha I spoke to @TacoSTIG and he wrote me a huge awesome write up, I'm gonna try my best to flex out and stuff the springs and measure as best as I can and get everything done properly.

    But Stig paid to have his done? Im still waiting for pictures from him on it also.
    I'm doing this upgrade next weekend along with the flips and extended shackles. I was really hoping I could see some details prior to mine but I'm thinking you're my last hope.

    Help me smellwhopood, you're my only hope.

    Hahaha yes he paid to have his done but he spent a lot of time with the guys who did it for him going over measurements and everything. I was going into this somewhat blind so his write up sure helps. I'll do my best to take pics and help out as much as possible!!

    I get it, you start wrenching and its hard to stop to document. I think it's just super important to go through it all (twice) and it would be very helpful for future projects for people like us.

    I'm kind of fortunate because I have everything ready to install in one shot. I've already plated the frame and had custom valve stacks made for when we rebuild this weekend.
    I was shocked when I read @JLee's post that no one has paid to have their relocate properly measured and cycled.

    Well I spent this morning into the afternoon doing half of my BAMF shock relocation. Did the passenger side. Going to do the driver side tomorrow. It was a ridiculous pain in the butt to cut off the stock shock mounts because my plasma cutter stopped working. The diffuser inside melted and I didn't have a spare. So angle grinder it was. Went through about 10 cutoff wheels on just the one side. Basically took some measurements, put the truck on Jack stands and took my rolling Jack underneath both sides of the axle and went up and down and tested where I needed to be for the bottom shock mount. I can grab all my measurements later. Too hot right now. Cleaned up and gonna take a nap now :) Here's some pictures. Hopefully be able to find somewhere nearby to get some flexing pictures!
