I run tg 3" and I dont have any problem with my 40's rubbing, trimmed a little on the front and upper area of the fender, nothing crazy, does well, I'm only running the 3rz, but its a heavy runner so I think that makes up for it

That would be bad ass.. I want to shoot for 27-30 frame with prolly 40 so more than likely I'll buy tg 3 Inch for a while and break them in a little and then take them apart and make my own pack also

you want 30 inch frame height?.....talll. with tg 3inch front and inboarded tg 5inch rears with a total of 5 springs in the pack i was at 25 1/2 with 40 mtrs at 25 pnds of air in them. and i thought that was tall... i say rears and use ranger rear springs in the rear. i know plenty of people who run rears up front and rangers in the back with 1 tons and 42s.
