The new knuckles need more backspacing to clear them

Small update , dropped the truck off on Wednesday afternoon , after some complications of not remembering I told them the stock torsion keys and bolts were sitting on top of the center consul and finding out the lift won’t support the factory wheels it looks like I won’t have it back till...

Doing a atomic fab coilover swap and a 9.25 front diff swap soon and these axles are great news !!!!

Took me over a month to get my lift and winch mount from rough country . Love the rig can’t wait to see where it goes .

Worth every penny , shifts are nice and firm , way more throttle response and my Speedo is correct .

Lift , winch and winch mount .

Lift is finally in but I’m doing something I’ve never done before ..... I’m letting someone else put a lift on my rig . This will be the first time aside from a transmission Iet someone else touch a vehicle of mine . I just don’t feel like spending 10-15 hours of my free time wrenching on...
