I then decided to add a Detroit Locker and learn to drive..

After scrapping several tires I decided to step up to MT/Rs.. I knew I planned to SAS sooner than later and wanted to get 37s but I knew 35s would be pushing the IFS..

I went with the 5" springs because I really felt the extr height was needed out here in AZ. I also tend to bring a ton of camping gear and did not want clearance issues in the rear. We moved my front axle forward about 2-3" and moved the rear axle back about 5". The overall WB should be about 108"-109" perfect for AZ waterfalls. I am also pleased with the flex.
We frenched the rear hanger into the frame because it was asking to be smacked by rocks. I now know they actually sell frenched hangers..D'oh. My rear does droop a bit. If anything I want my rear to be a tad higher since I regulary use my bed to haul. How level did you guys rigs sit when you were done? What did you do to remedy it? I am using a bigger shackle in the rear and may add a lift block if the front doesn't settle down.
Thanks !
