Shocks come in yet?

Finally some updates to this build! After a 13 month wait my shocks finally showed up and a couple of weeks ago I got them installed. Been super busy with work so I haven't had a chance to test them out but I will report back when I do. I also came across a good deal on some Morimoto XB lights for the front and rear and added a bunch of cool billet goodies I found from Ai13 Billet to a new LC2 Fuel Jug. Some review notes for the RPG RST install: There is very little information floating around regarding where to place the shock tabs in order to maximize both tire and RST rack clearance, if anyone is looking to do this install hit me up and I'll get you some measurements that seemed to work for me. Additionally while I had everything torn apart I went ahead and replaced all the rear suspension bushings, deaver isolator pads, and also gave the deavers a fresh coat of steel-it.

Ill get some final travel measurements and pictures while its's up on the rack in the next week or so. I need to do some regular maintenance as well as extend the elocker wiring and put some tethers on the limit straps to prevent interference with the leaf springs.
