Almost 5"s in the rear probaly 3 on the fronts.I am going to use YJ hoses on the front too that should give it plenty of slack.

If you ever see any mud don't run boots on the shocks. It collects in them and will eat away the seal on the shocks then you get to buy new ones.

Went wheeling at Wind Rock Saturday with Sgtskid and Tonyb ,had blast and nobody broke,I did throw a code though,p0300(random multiple cylinder misfire) and was missing a lil bit ,checked and cleaned my dist cap and replaced the coil seems fine now.Thinking maybe it was just moisture in the cap
