back of truck is 34.75 and that is with no spacers and set at 2.5 inches. Due to me using the trailing arm relocators I can set the linkage rods to 1.75 inches from center to center to bring it down more. I will let the truck settle and then go from there.

Looks great so far Tony =where are the pics of the truck on the ground?? Will those DJM swaybar links work with other brands of bar? What links are you using on the front bar to correct that angle?
