Wow, that is B-E-A-UTIFUL!!! Very cleanly done! I like that it isn't jacked up too far. How much lift over stock did it end up being? Again, excellent job to you and Mike. I like it!

THANKS!!
about 3.5" as it sits. I anticipate it will settle out to around 2.75 or 3".
I have this diff here for you if you still want it. I am heading out of town in the next couple of days. I would like to send it before I leave.

Thanks man! I think I might go with some stock shackles up front myself. I am getting 35's next week, but its still tall even with the 3" TG springs. Just to get a little lower. Great build, I like it! I love that paint job too! Can't wait to see it in action!

For anyone keeping track of this thread here are a few updates and photos of the latest crap-
The specs of the front are as follows: the springs are made out of domestic spring stock 1.5" lift from level and axle pin is 1/2 inch back from stock.
The rear are Old Man Emu springs with the Trail gear Rear 5.5" shackle kit.
I pulled the bed off to paint the lower rear of the cab. I have a flat bed being fabbed and I need to get the paint matched. I decided to repaint the truck to get everything to match up. Got an few new goodies from big brown!!
Below are a few recent photos
