I know you said your running 35's but how big of a tire do you think you would be able to actually clear? 37's? 40's?

I could run 37s if I wanted to but I would have to adjust when I hit my bump stop so i dont hit my fender. If I did minimal trimming I could easily clear 37s but no bigger

How much was the suspension? I want to do the exact same thing, but I don't really need the ability to do rad jumps.

Did you get the fiberglass bedsides too?
Also, did you get to keep your wheel wells?

The suspension was about 1300 that being coil overs, springs, hydraulic bump stops with cans. I found all the stuff new on another forum. The actually long travel kit was 4500 plus install so total was 6k

Going to the desert next weekend hopefully and I will be bringing the go pro. Installed bedsides this weekend, ordered a spring under, shackles, and all the hardware for that. also picked up some 2.5x4 bump stops for the rear

Still leaf springz but instead over them being mounted on top of the axle they will go under. Also this leaf pack will have either 12 or 11 a lot thinner leafs instead of the 3 or 4 with an over load that I have now. With the spring under axle (SUA) I will get more travel out of it than a spring over (SOA)

This past weekend I installed new breaks and rotors, along with my ham radio and black shell for my grill
