What tires are you running?

What rims? Did you have to machine the centers out to fit?

Just one thing:

Have you tried turning the steering under full front suspension compression yet???? Could be some nasty sounds coming from the front bumper and firewall area if the tires really do measure >29'5". See sticky about lifts/tyres etc.

May Look cool ATM but make sure everything is clearanced to be functional too.

Looks great, makes me want to get mine back on the road soon. You will love the BFG KMs, so far the best tire I ran on mine. I let my boy use them on his Ranger and wore them out, he drives a lot more than I thought. Keep up the good work and keep sending pics.
