Default 32" duratracs on 3" rovertyme lift

After the HG job and having to do and redo the valley pan gasket I rewarded myself with 5 new shoes:

32" was just right, glad I didn't go with 33"

Looks great!

Invert your spare tire carrier, mount the spare, and you're all set

Not sure which set he used. But many of us with the rovertyme setups use custom valved Fox's. once you drop $2k on the rovertyme parts what's another $1k for matched Fox shox.

Yes, I did the lift install myself. A bit of a pain in the butt, but everything does bolt right up. (Like the RTE sliders, the components/pieces that came with the RTE lift are robust)
For shocks I went with the TFs for now (3"+ on the length). Have been pleased with them so far.

The good news is that I can still get the thing in my garage which is what I was shooting for.
