Finished the lift install put it on all the bump stops and no clearance or binding issues. 3” front and 2.1” rear lift with 3/4” rake. With the diff drop pinion angle changed by 3 degrees and cv joints are almost level at ride height. Rear pinion angle barely changed and there is no need for changing rear upper and lower arms

Gained about 1.5” of articulation both front and rear. Same hill also before and I couldn’t get a tire to lift anymore.

Next up bumper install.

What company did you end up going with for your lift?
Personally, I'd get rock sliders before I got a bumper to protect your side body.
Not that you asked. :ROFLMAO:
Truck looks good!

Awesome!
When your passenger rear tire was at full droop were the brake lines from the frame to axle still ok?
I haven’t flexed mine that direction yet and that’s the only thing I still need to check.

No brake line issues front or rear the abs sensor lines front and rear are more of an issue but no issues at full droop for either.

They were very tight when installing the springs though and it’s about 2 inches up from there to get the extend travel shock installed onto the lower eye on the axle.

This is Dobinsons GS 3” kit with UCAs, adjustable pan hard, adjustable rear end links and 15mm rear spacers. Front springs are uprated to 220lbs additional load. Rear are stock weight 1.6 lift height.

I have dissent sliders I ordered in January which should arrive soon.
 
Another mods (DIY):
After a while drawer system (Front Runner) installed with my custom side/ top panels (fillers), I gained a lot of spaces and best organized gears for off-road / overlanding.
1 thing which I am not quite satisfied is losing the front OEM storage because the drawer system sits on top of it.
Thought about it, then today I executed it ;)
I so dang happy that I got it just like what I dreamed about many nights hahaha
Gangs, attached are the photos of it

PS: I had tons of mods (you name them) that I posted / shared since last August, but never created any like “member built”. Hope those will give you some great ideas / inspirations or bad ideas to avoid ( hahaha I guess not )

Finally put my rock sliders on and added a "Weyland Yutani Building Better Worlds" sticker to my back glass. (Based off my screen name it's evident that I'm an Alien fan lol)
 
Photos will be always helpful than just words only ;)
There ya go, tried to get a dog and a cat in a photo for you as well lol

Spent my birthday yesterday at jury duty. So I took the long way home and brought the vehicle its first couple creek crossings/off roading. Not difficult by any means but it’s finally dirty haha.

Now treating myself to some good bbq.

Love Corkscrew. Haven’t been in a while and need to get back over there soon.

Where’d you go riding at? Looks like a nice little trip.
 
Fitcamx & DV8 Offroad center console molle panels. Both were incredibly easy to install.

Is that price correct on there site $98 for the first edition mud flaps ?😳
That is what I paid for them, I believe they are made in China but they seem to be well constructed. The front ones can be trimmed to better fit on the inner part of the wheel well but I didn’t bother with it
