Finally had time to reinstall my Carli coils. I swapped with a buddy that was doing some chasing down in Baja for a week. He liked them so much he just bought me some new ones. Definitely like the ride of these over the stock ones.
Man that looks good how is the ride? what did that cost?

The ride is amazing. The coils, bump drops, sway drops and brake line brackets were about $500. The shocks were about $1700 for all four and I had them custom valved for my axle weights. Super happy with everything, tracks great, steering is perfect and the ride on the streets and off-road is exactly what I was hoping for.

Installed Remote Access on the truck today. Utilized the VSS module (shock sensor) and RMU. Got the parts from Levittown Ford in NY, they've got a killer deal on the VSS and RMU, great service. It was pretty quick, and Kevin over at Fairway Ford in Canfield OH activated it in less than 5 minutes over the phone, which was awesome. Very cool, as I now have remote start on my factory FOB, as well as lock/unlock/start/stop from anywhere on my phone, PLUS alarm alerts on my phone.
Also finally put in these 3W stainless steel LED bolt-lights that I've had since before I picked up the truck. Two on each side tied into the running light's via the Magnum Harness (again, NO factory harnesses are cut or spliced into). Pretty happy with how it looks! Pardon the dirty truck, it's been tough to keep clean up here in New England! Poured yesterday...more crummy weather coming this week.

Think those shocks are valved heavy enough to control the truck with the sway bar deleted for off road? or would that not give any benefit on a solid axle?

You would definitely get some more articulation. I took my front stabilizer off my Tundra, don't think I'd do it on the SD. Things are just so damn tall and heavy.

So 2.5" front what about the rear?
What size tire and rim combo?
