Those are bad ***** tow hooks, man, and probably help stiffen up the frame, don't they?

I have the JCR spacer and the Rusty's brace. Of the 5 bolts that came with the Rusty's brace, only ONE of them was long enough. I had to go buy new hardware. Whoever put the Rusty's kit together is an idiot...

What wheel spacers would you guys recommend? I think 1.5" spacers would move my tires out just enough to keep them from rubbing on the control arms. In Idaho, I'm fairly certain that I can get two inches of tread outside of my fender flares without any problems. Even so, it's easy to fab up some flare extensions with some landscape trim for cheap.

Some old dude in the back is like, "here, we'll grab a couple of these, and a couple of these... Ah, crap, I forgot to change my Depends, let's get this packaged to go..."

I'll consider getting some after I get a steering brace. I need new front shocks, too, my Rancho RS5000s in the front are for stock height, not 2" of lift.
