I was running 6 psi in the rear and 8 psi in the front with my 35x12.50x15 on 8" wide rims. It worked great, I had good traction, and never lost a beed :greengrin:

I am glad I put the 14" rear shocks on, I am glad I did the pivot blocks, and I am glad I removed another leaf from my rear pack. The truck was wheeling so well I was really proud of it. It went everywhere I pointed it and the suspension has never worked this good and the ride has never been this smooth. It felt like I had 37s aired down to 3 psi on there. I know how smooth that is because I have ran Marlin's beadlocked 37s like that and it is a HUGE difference compared to the 35s. But with the improvements done to my suspension, it feels that way but with my 35s on.

So I was really pleased with everything. This truck is really working better then ever and all of my hard work has paid off well :yesnod:


























And then when I thought it couldn't get any better..........
