Mmmm, so you're setting up a trust account for your IFS.
Sounds like you're planning on breaking often

I'm through the floor. I only have crappy 13" rancho shocks. It was hard to get the correct angle of the shocks and clear the frame. I'll try to get better pics this week and update this post.



I'll try to get pics to show but I hit the frame during articulation without wheel spacers, with spacers (1.25") there is not enough room for shocks. For me to get over 10" I had to cut the floor.

Here's a question I haven't seen anyone answer yet -> how's she handle on the street with no front sway bar and the TC kit? I keep looking at that kit, but I still like to take turns pretty aggressively . . . body roll, turn in feel, etc?

it rides "fun" on the street. its leans like crazy with no front sway bar but with the front being a little wider i think you can get away with a little more lean on the truck. i can still go as fast as before on corners just a little extra body roll. this truck is my dd and i have no regrets installing this kit.

well i have a a couple questions about this. im planning on buying this kit when summer hits but not too sure on a couple of things. wat springs are u using in the rear? wat is up with the cutting of the front bumper? did tires hit it or was it something else? it doesnt look like it rubs in the pic but i could be wrong? why did u do that? does this kit also still allow u to use the front skid plate? i dont see why not. or did u just leave it off?
