I just finished installing all the control arms and shocks I won curtousy of @Metalcloak ! You guys rock! Added some 2.5” coils to top it off. Very pleased with how easy they were to install and the length specs they provided worked perfectly. Got about 100 miles on it right now but i can say those duroflex joints,springs and paired with the rocksports is a very very nice ride. Love the gold too it matches my wheels. Amazingly great built quality product! Ill get some more side on pictures when the suns back up.

Yeah cheap 17" steelies (I like the look). Trail Master TM9 17x9 4.25" backspace Metal Cloak recommended 4.0"-4.5" backspace.
Love the wheels. Been looking for a set of affordable plain black wheels. Not into fake beadlocks. Whats the offset on those, cant find that info anywhere.

He says right in his post 4.25 backspace. A -12 is 4.5 backspacing on a 9" wheel. His wheel has .25" less which is 6.35mm. -12 + -6.35 = -18.35 so his wheel is about a -18.

I’m pretty sure your rear track bar is upside down. That way you will smash up the exhaust in a real hurry

Not sure what shocks you are running or how much travel you have but you also probably want to reroute the parking brake cables under the crossmember.
