The rears won't hit the spring plate. You need extended spring plates. Check out www.diybeadlock.com for them. I did hockey pucks up front. My tires don't rub anymore.

I agree and will freely admit I have blindly thrown money at upgrades only to not get the outcome I desired. But you eventually learn to spend where it counts. Perfect example is this bumpstop convo. I'll probably go overboard with the bumpstop setup only because I don't want to be in a situation where I'm shredding tires.

I wish someone had told me that if I shouldn't regear a LPD30. That was $600 bucks down the ****ter.

Agreed just something's may cost you if you lack the patience thing. Ask how I know.
