Ah.
I was just about to ask about use.
Really like it, but was curious on the choice of putting the axle side rear lowers below the tube. Since you're going for snow, it makes sense.
I tend to think in rocks only, cool to see something new! Nice work, now go wheel it so we can drool over those pics.

New question:
How are you keeping the axles centered? You have almost no triangulation on the 4link, and despite my staring, I cannot find a panhard. Generally, a 5 link would be called for, like your truck was stock.
No panhard would usually spell an axle that has upwards of 6" of side to side motion, yet, I don't see the body/frame off center in the pics.
Do tell.

The DOT guy here is a real prick. Even if you had everything to the legal limit (bumpers, headlights, flares etc.) he would still pull you off the road every week and say "get it inspected, It's not road legal" or "the tires are just too big..."
