How big is your SL lift? Obviously you put 35's on. My ProComp is 4" and I'm planning on going 33's (295/75 16). Recently, I've found a deal on 35" Boggers and now am torn between the 2 tire sizes.

If you are referring to the cone washers that are in the hub assymbly that hold the locking hub tightly in place, they are not that difficult to remove.

Just loosen the nuts that hold the hub until they are just beyond the end of the studs, then tap them with a hammer and the cone washers will "pop" out of the taper for easy removal.

You would be better off with 3'' springs in the back instead of those 3'' blocks, 3'' blocks cause to much axle wrap.
