de arched rear leafs and flipkit in the rear, cut coils in the front for now. gonna do a 10 inch step notch in the back and run 4 inch blocks with 2 inch shackles as well. for the front ima play with the I beam x dimension so I can take another coil out without having 20000 degrees of camber.

I heard somebody re-drilled the pivot location on the i beam end and they were able to straighten some of the camber out.

I see, I have been looking at getting the LMC bumper and installing some LED bars in them but the holes are kind of an odd size. I don't really want to cut my own holes as I want the bumper to remain chrome

that's exactly what ima try to do. while I was under there it looked like I could raise the pivot location an inch, trying to avoid the 600 dollar dream beams and 34 year old kingpins. wish this was as easy as my 95.

I was trying to accomplish this weekend. I figured 1" should get me pretty close to 0 degree.
