wow that thing is tall, hope its stable. what wheelbase are you at? its tall cuz theres no weight in it. After the weight of the engine tranny and transfercase, the rig should at least sag 2-3 inches... Hopefully. Otherwise im going to have to take some more leafs out....... current wheelbase again with no weight is at 102-103" should be around 105" when its put together thanks for all the comments!
