I did see that thread but people are constantly writing new things about what they should do. Just because I know tire and lift size doesn't mean I know what else I need to purchase or do. I.e t-case drop and trimming. That thread is highly unorganized and should be set up in file under lifts from 1bb to a monsterous 8 inch.
Thanks
