Default Nice Build!

Nice build thread! Got some really good ideas from this. So when you pulled your front axle forward, was that just temporary to install the long arms or was it permanently relocated?

I think Drew stretched the front a little bit. I have the same long arms and have mine stretched an inch or two forward with no problems from mine.

So it is basically being forced forward? Would that be correct? Are you also running a 3" coil?
Thx for responding!

I'm running a 4.5" coil spring. Yes, the axle is constantly being held ~2" farther forward than stock. The arms are all adjustable so you can set them however you want.

Dig your build man...exactly what I'm looking to do with mine in the near future. I had a question about the first stages of your lift (the RC 3") - did you have to add an SYE or DS when you installed it? From the sounds of it some folks can get away with it and others not so much, so was curious how that played out for you. I see eventually you ended up adding those on later down the road. Trying to get an idea as to how much longer I need to be saving up! Thx!
