    Thanks!! @Large I did some adjustments via @jberry813 but no major tuning yet. I did get a chance to hit the dunes and it seemed to do well. But can't go too fast since the front can't keep up yet.

    Only pic from Oregon thus far.. ( on loaner wheels ) Back to my SCS's now.

    Get some dual shocks like on mine Alex. Front end outperforms the hell out of the rear end still. Bottom outs are non existant and it just asks for more. Everything I throw at it, it eats it up no problem.

    Cheap and easy mod. A hell of a lot cheaper than going full LT.

    When you had your pre boxed rear frame wat rear leaf set up did u have and did u have the C. B. Drop and axle shims and if so which ones, iam lookin in to the Deaver expo leaf pack, and which front long travel kit? Also how hard has it been fitting 35's? And last question.... For now, are u getting away from ORI's ? How would the rear end worked out with them if u didn't go sua ?....... Bored at work if u couldn't tell ⬆⬆lol

    -I do have a CB drop, no axle shims, the CB drop wasn't installed by me, I think it was in from way back when I got my first lift at 4wheel parts.
    -The Deavers should be good, I'm still waiting to hear back from them in regards to a EXPO Long Travel pack for me.
    -As for the Front Long Travel I believe I'm going with the @dirt designs 4wd Race kit.
    -35's are still a clearing process. But the DD LT kit moves the wheel forward an inch or more so I shouldn't have much issue once that kit is in. Currently I rub on the firewall/fenderwall areas.
    -The ORI's are great but I just didn't have the time to tune them correctly. So I went with the standard setup everyone uses.
    -Not too sure how the rear would have worked with the ORI's I believe I'd have to link it to make good use out of it.

    Why the 2" kit? as far as I knew that kit was only created to meet a very specific race standard.

    Very cool, just don't see too many of those kits go out, always curious what people are applying them to. Sounds like it'll be perfect for you!

    This may have been asked at somepoint but I didn't want to go through 79 pages...how do you control the bed spakers? I mean are they on all the time or can you turn them on and off, only on when inside speakers are on, can turn them on without inside speakers playing? <<<<million question in one, I know...
