Nice!

Could use some new shoes though.

What's your plan for tires?

Nice lift! But are you going to move the axles? Looks like it will be rubbing if you try and fill the 'newly opened' wheel wells.

Well, 15 X 7" rims with 2.5" backspacing, and Super Swamper 32 X 9.50 tires. The theory is that it WILL NOT rub, but if it does, I think I'll take the sawzall to it, rather than moving the axles. She seems to flex pretty good on gnarly trails, (but no pix, cause I've been running solo). Gotta put it on a ramp and flex it to "seat" the new coils. Just gotta find one...

Well, I got my mind changed by Steve Kramer at Calmini, and Tom Kingston at Spidertrax.

Now running 15 X 8 wheels with 2-3/4" backspacing, and Goodyear Wrangler MT/R's in 31 X 10.50. Pix coming soon!
