For towing and speeds I would go with the 4.5 or even 4, I have a 4" rc on 31x10.5 and the fastest I have gone before worrying that my steering wheel would fall off was 75-80.
And for towing I will include a pic of what I used to tow on this lift, (I dont have a pic of me towing on the lift but you can look through my pics to see the lift)

Thanks guys.

I'm about an hour away from having my first in person look at this rig at Nellis AFB after nearly 500 miles on the road.. must want it bad, so hope it's all I expect.
Would like a cruise around the desert in an F-16 while there but I'm sure that won't happen.

Default OME 4"

I spoke with Dirk @ DPG about the OME Super Ultimate 4" kit. I'll pursue it further but he says it rides great on the road. Hoping to pick his brain for the best setup with 31" tires and order next week. Rock crawling is not part of the plan, more of an expedition type build but like the look w/31s (and I have 5 like-new Cooper STTs).

Maybe this could be moved to Build thread.

BOUGHT NOT BUILT!
Could we be looking at a mall crawler.
#1 on this wish list is to get it off the concrete, verify flex for clearance and get it offroad into the snow.. Have test fit the tire chains.
