that picture is after the 2" blocks in the rear and aftermarket lift keys. I am thinking about takin the 2" blocks out and putting 1" blocks on the rear. It sets up a little to high in the rear for my tastes. What do yall think?

Looks good. I would say leave it. The higher the better. Or adjust the keys more to level it out.

the keys are barly touching the bump stops already. The sway bar is already fighting it. I may just take the sway bar off and smash the bump stops. That would get it a little higher in the front. lol. when these tires ware out im puttin a BL on it and goin with bigger tires.

i haven't gotten to it yet but other guys have said that taking the swar bar off is fine as long as the torsion is cranked up.

Yeah I have heard that too. As soon as I have time to replace upper ball joints and inner tie rod ends I will take it off and then get it aligned and call it done until the tires wear out.
