    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    i've got a 17" wheel by itself. pro comp 7089. i think it's a 17x9 w/ 4.75"BS. ran 315/70/17s on them w/ no prob. i've have to verify at the house whether it's the 17x8 w/ 4.5"BS or the 17x9.

    Ok guys gotta question:

    I'm going to be washing and reprinting my frame...so when taking the rear shocks off do I just need to put a car jack under the rear diff and get tires off the ground to take rear shocks or what? Don't want to mess the shocks up. Sorry for the noob question.

    if you need to extend the shocks for removal, jack under the frame or the leafs. rear diff/axle will keep them compressed.

    So it'll be easier not to compress the shocks?

    i'd remove the top nut, lift the frame to extend the shock out of the top mount, then remove the bottom bolt. but that's just me. i'm sure someone else may have a better response.

    This. Just spray it. Tape off or use a piece of cardboard to keep the spray away from things you don't want painted.

    So just undo the top bolt (where the shock goes into the bamf kit) and just compress it down to where I can move the shock forward or backwards enough to where I can paint that area?

    Miami is great, and South Beach rocks. So many bikinis... I used to leave New Smyrna Beach, stop in Miami and party for the night, then head down to the keys the next morning after the hangover wore off. Good times.
