How it sits on the ground. New Moog HDs with 2" spacers in the rear as well.

295 75 16s on worn torsion bars maxed out and 5100s all around, it doesn't have much more left as far as uptravel unless that bump is more compressible than I think. Haven't been able to completely flex it yet but it doesn't rub anywhere at all and the rear tucks nicely inside the flare.

Glad it's back on the road!

Makes sense. He did come off that way though, like nothing can be improved on at all. I was considering coilovers instead of ram coils and shocks but I think that'd be a far down the road modification if it ever was deemed needed. My philosophy was it has to be built regardless, why settle for...

I think we all go down the same exact road with these rigs. Leveled and 33s, yearning something just a touch more ... no bigger than 35s ... 37s or bust lol. I've been in contact with Tahoverlanding as well and I think I'll start the gathering phase here soon. Do you see any issues with using...

Hey man ... it's next year! Those RCVs ever come in? I'm in a pinch with mine. Was really determined to do a SAS but time and money are turning that down for the moment. Can't have it down as we might be moving here soon and it's falling apart around me so I need to address the steering pretty...

The two tone has looked good on every other generation so whynot

Man that 6.0 looks right at home in there! Glad to hear that bump in power still feels good even with 35s and all that added weight! I'm currently researching UCAs and am getting tires hopefully next week if they have them in stock. I tried messing around in the gravel parking lot at my...

Damn now I have a decision to make ... rebuild the IFS with mid travel hopes or do this swap ... how did it ride on the street? Are you using factory Ram coils or did you have to find something else?

@Burb One Well ... I'm genuinely curious about the front suspension now as I did 3" keys and 5100s in the front and was extremely disappointed to find that even though my drivers side adjustment bolt is maxed out I only got barely level with Moog HDs in the back. My bars must be toast. I had a...

I ended up getting a set of stock 17s from a friend with a little tread left so I've been running those but I should be ordering tires, Moog HD springs, some keys and 5100s in the next week or so. I was really hoping those AT3s came in a 295/75-16 but I think the smaller 285s are probably a...

Glad you're making some progress! My progress came to a grinding halt with temporarily losing my job but I'm back at it now and will hopefully be ordering my first 'fun' parts in a few weeks.

Dang! What a bummer! I have a build plan for mine and the 1st thing I'm doing is finding a cheap 5.3 to tear down and rebuild( went to school for engine rebuilding and have never had the opportunity to complete a build so a cheap LS is the perfect one to start ... 13 years after I finished...

I'm stopping in monthly or so and reminding you I'm vicariously living through you and pretending my stock Burb is a lifted long travel beast ... I can only hold out for so long to hear about the progress! Hope it's working for you!

Do you have any pictures of the mount in the bumper for the swingout? Any updates?

Heck yeah! Thanks for the response. I'm not sure if I'll go as far as you have, but man that looks like it'll be fun when it's done! I'll have to wait and see how many kids are still living at home by the time that decision will be made :LOL: Are you going to run flares or fiberglass up front...

Can't wait for this to be buttoned up! Sold my Ram and just purchased an 06 Burb. I just reread your thread and is this the first time you've upgraded the steering box? Mine clunks a little bit while turning and is a little loose feeling and figured with the miles it has it's probably due. I...

How about now? I really liked where this was going! And I'm on the search for a full size suv again

I finally see myself being able to get out some this summer (pending this Corona Virus doesn't ruin our summer) and although I've 'camped' at my dads cabin a handful of times in our tent, my knowledge and abilities are very limited as far as setting up(trial by fire!) and just things to do while...
