is it a trail rig or your DD?

Here's the rear frame coated and new suspension installed. Pre 33's.

Most likely a trail rig now. Spooling the rear axle seems to be the cheapest way to go. Need something to keep these 33's lined up.

it limits axle wrap

just a little coolant actually. fixed a small leak in the lower hose.

as far as the shocks go, you are correct, that's the stock setup. works fine.
