Awesome. It looks like you have good flex for just 3" lift and 33s. Great build thread

Thank you! Ya it flexes pretty well for the stock arms I'm going to do a mid arm three link this summer. The back flexes more than the front because of the flat leaf springs and long shackes

i added two 1.5 gallon tanks and a pressure switch to my oba it will rub the die grinder almost constantly and that uses alot of air. i have a quick connect under the hood and at the anks in the back they are out of the way and take up no usable space in tthe window where they are
