Mike, I guess I missed this tidbit - are y'all having to move the truck and tools + the household goods or is the truck staying where it is for now?

Yes moving houses, we sold ours and we are renting until I can find what I need (a place with a shop or land to build a house and shop) No the truck is still at my buddy Chip's (Tireblazin) shop

Here are a few pictures from Sunday and Monday we have been setting up the Scott's Super Slam rear 4 link ! Ride height is frame rails 4 inches off of the ground, full lift 6 inches off the ground. I will finish welding inside the brackets when I flip it all over to do the bottom sides !

Next we started working on the rear upper bag brackets, setting the Firestone F9000 bags at 9.25 inches at ride height, hoping that will be hitting that "sweet spot" for the ride quality

LOL....yep 6 inches at full lift, she's a LOW-RIDER !!! And yes the shocks were upside down for a reason but AFCO actually can be ran that way if you want to , we are getting different shocks though these don't have enough travel .
