Ok Rock Squirl it up to you.  If the lift has settled down two what I'm looking for I may go with Marlin.  If so maybe I can get to work on it over X-mas break.  I have an IFS rear axle as well but have not rotated.  May try shaving the diff and rotate at that time latter on.

Albo Runnin - Pic's would be good to visualize the ride height.
