Yeah I was reading that some people were talking crap about the iro kit, but then I read a **** ton of posts about them out flexing there friends high dollar kits. I think its worth an extra hundred to completely redo the lift, and ill get full new leaf packs, I have to imagine my aal we soon begin to sag

Most likely, possibly 35s but I doubt that. But all this talk about wheeling made me decide to drive out to my "rti ramp" since I havent hit it with both sway bars removed

I think I pushed my front brake line to its limits, but the rear still have a lot to go, ill probably relocate my fronts for that extra 2 inches or so

Yeah a 3" intake hose is fine. A 4" snorkle cap seems small. The ARB pre filter hat is around 8" and I bet the RR is around 7"

Its easy to upgrade, serious offroad has kit for 750, then all youll need is 6.5 coils, shackles, and shackle relocation brackets. But I think with long arms the ucas connect to the lca for the most flex possible, anyone feel free to correct me if im wrong
