You think I cn get some 20" spinners for the michelines
Kabota, If it makes you feel any better the 49' is running minimal lift for 44" tires & enough fender trimming for 16" of travel,
I'm diggin all the EXTR3ME Ideas you all have but as for as somthing I would actually do, what are your oppinions of the raised spring pearches with the incorporated link mount?
Also how much hight is gained with the inverted shackle (shackle flip) on the rear springs?

3" if you use the same hanger, 6.5" if you use a front spring hanger (off the rear leaf mount of another truck) and put the shackle in it.
I seriously wouldnt go over 4" for the spring perch... 8" lift leaf packs/4" spring perches are better than the 6" perches/6" leaves... youre not gonna be flexin anyways...
you might also want to consider bumpstops in the rear because when you pull someone out it will pull the rear of the truck down (compressing hte suspension) and possible send the tires to meet Aunty Fenderwell.
