Re: Rate my truck for the trail please

The U bolt flip kit is on and I fabbed new shock mounts to axle. The shackle angle is where its suppose to be from when I installed the mcrear4s.  I moved shackle hangers back 2"s like I was suppose to.  I am gonna flex it today and see what happens.  It rides very well on the road tho. 
As for rating me and me being upset it wont happen. I posted this for this sort of input so its what I want. 
The truck itself may look too nice but the cab was layed up on a tree so its pretty much done as it is. 
I wont hit the trails without being sure I can make it.  Ive run the con with taco with a 6" lift ifs front without lockers and made it fine but I bypassed a few of the harder parts. 
the crossmember is 1/4" but its gusseted and reinforced enough it should take some abuse.  I plan on using 35-12.5-15 rims and tires from a friends truck.  Hes parting out his rig and so they are just sitting there with a few good trail runs left in them.
Keep the input coming!! thx guys. 
Also post some pics of what your shackle angle is for your marlin rear springs.
