Default 6.5 la lift 33 13.50 ltb's anyone?

Need to figure out in a week what im going to do. Im pretty set on this set up. Just seeing if anyone has the same. Post em if you got it or close.

RC 6.5 long arm lift
33 13.50 15 ltb's - 15x8 3 3/4 BS
rustys HD over the knuckle steering kit
And of course the tom woods DS/SYE kit

Axles come later with 4.56s arb front detroit rear.

RC 6.5 long arm lift- no need for that height for 33's. you can do a 4.5"
33 13.50 15 ltb's - 15x8 3 3/4 BS- good tires if not ran on the street. they are super soft
rustys HD over the knuckle steering kit- i would go with the currie steering. seen bad issues with the rusty kits
And of course the tom woods DS/SYE kit-

Axles come later with 4.56s arb front detroit rear. -

if you wheel having a LCOG will do wonders. its much more stable on the trail. if you ever get to TSF you will see what I'm talking about. off camber and with a large lift you will defiantly have the "pucker factor" going on

1st gear will be like 3rd but you won't have the power to get to third on stock gears.... Rough country has a 4.5 long arm kit WITH rear springs NOT add-a-leaf and if you get in off ebay, you get a SYE and 2 piece CV driveshaft for 2 grand
