Haven't got around to posting but recently installed two Hella lights on front bumper. Have four others waiting to go on. And installed 4.5 rough country lift with nitro shocks and adjustable track bar.

So when I get enough money. I'm re-gearing to 4.56 and doing the 8.8 LSD axle swap. I figured this is a better way to go. 
Then 6.5" lift with long arms next.. (My 5" is sagging now after having it for so long so new lift kit later on after college. Rough country or Iron Rock, or Full traction) Any opinions??? radius, vs, 3 link vs 4 link lol.
anyways. Tomorrow installing the wheel spacers so I can push the tire out to line up with my Bushwackers cus they sit in to much and it drives me nuts, and i will need the backspacing for the 12.50 tire...
And to all those that say just buy new rims... I LOVE my rims, they are 3 months old and I'm not going to buy new rims cus either way you look at it.. your still adding more wear. so bleh.. LOL And the spidertrax are best on market wheel and hub centric grade 8 hardware...Breaking their lug nuts isnt any different then breaking a regular one...

I've got the rough country short arm with drop brackets. I have no complaints at all. Great lift. Especially for the $. Flexes quite a bit for short arms too.
Here's a pic when I still had 33s
