Don't guess I've posted the red wagon in here yet.

No torsion bolts, 20x12s 285/55 toyo at2 stock spring pack and 2" shackle height in this pic. I've dropped it to 3" shackles since pic and will be pulling the overload when I get time. Working on trying to find the shorter rancho adjustable shocks for the rear since the ones I have now bottom out already.

Still have a lot to do to get it where I want it, but it's getting there. 01 lbz zf6, not a typo it's an lbz swap.

Just realized I hadn't posted any recent pics of the red wagon.

No torsion bolts and 3" shackles, 285/55/20 tire on 20x12

Offset plays a huge role. I don't know what everyone's obsession is with ridiculously negative offset wheels. I fit 305's with zero trimming on a 3/5 drop. They are only 20x9.5 but you literally can't tell the difference between them and a 20x10. Offset is around +24 but with the adaptors they are around +0. I very much enjoy my paint so I didn't want 3/4 of the tire sticking out of the wheel well, mine sit completely flush.

I love those LML wheels so much. Do you have any pics down the side from the front and back? I'm thinking I'm going to get the repop LML wheels in 8 on 6.5 for my regular cab so I don't have to run the adapters. I'm leaving the factory flares off and I want them to stick out as little as possible. Truck looks great.

I would have to snap a pic. Not sure what the offset specs are on the repop wheels, or what they are made of. The finish also looks like chrome, I'm lousy at keeping chrome looking good so that's why I went with the original wheels they are much easier to keep clean.

Thanks. I've got a lot I want to do. I'd really like to go lower if I can figure out how to make the tires work. I can't go to 4 plys.

Sawzall man...extra large fender mods all for corners. But seriously those -44 might be the only thing you have issues with

I've already got the extra large fender mod plus a little lol. Yea the -44 don't help with rubbing any. Or the fact I'm rubbing a 285/55 10 ply toyo to where everyone else runs 285/50 4plys. I've got some ideas in mind for fender mods that I've not had time to try. Honestly the way it is now is about the same as putting a 285 on a stock truck rubbing wise. I can drive around 90% of its rubbing issues.

It's definately getting at least 1" lower in the rear when I have time to pull the overload, build traction bars, and install my bags, and order new rear shocks. The front I'm not sure on.

Summer time is gone and cool enough to install some lowering parts for us +50 y/o's , 2 items yet to purchase, the front perches for the leaf springs for a 2"/4" drop and maintain all the stock front end geometry driveline angles and load capacity. This will compliment the 1-1/2" front and rear sway bars, not the Hellwig ones...

Picked up the FabTech bars yesterday for a good price...

Yep same bag set up. Just gotta find time. I need to spend a whole day on it.. Don't have that kinda free time though. But once I get me jeep going good I'll be able to let it sit and do a little here and there.
