Not sure if i missed it, but. Those 63's. Were they off a 2wd or 4wd. I know the 4wd springs offer a little more lift than 2wd. It looks perfectly level with the 4" ifs lift.

My 63's came out of an 88 2wd. They are 3 leaf pack with an overload. I left them just they way they were. Im surprised that it sits this level. Im very happy with the result.

Im going to be ordering sliders this week hopefully

And I love the trails around here....you can get anywhere from just about anywhere in this valley lol

Well....went back up there again last night....only got this one pic as after this I spent about a half our diggin the Yota out of snow that was up to my waist! Got offered a winch....by I was determined to get out...and I did. While my group was watching myself and my buddy dig ourselves out a kid and his girl came out of nowhere and said they had been walking for about an hour....said they had two trucks stuck 2 miles further up the mountain. I got unstuck and took them up there....I aired down their tires from a ridiculous 40psi to about 10psi....then they crawled right out. All in all a good night....I was blown away with how deep the snow was for this valley.

I think I dug at first for about 15 mins....then moved and slid off to the left into a deep hole where the waist deep snow was...then dug and aired down there for about 30 mins. I started getting tired so I slowed up....but I got out with no straps or help lol
