That's awesome! What limiting straps do you have I like the idea of adjustable straps.

Here's the detail on the straps. I have a set also but haven't installed yet.

I cant post a picture from work but I have slicks on 17x9s with a 28x10.5" slick. I have coilovers in the front and heim tie rods. I like my coilovers way more than with the straps; no need to constantly adjust them and the ride is way better.

Not exactly, but similar (same concept). The kit I have I think is an early model. The biggest issue is the tie rod bolt to the spindle is tapered, and finding that tapered bolt is not easy (I never found one), so I ended up drilling out the spindle for a large straight bolt.

Thank you for the link, I know how to install the straps coming from the 4wd diesel scene. Are those the brand straps you are using?

I'll be waiting on pics for this set up. I was really wanting to run a 28" tire. An issue with street driving? Rubbing?

At what point do you need anymore than a strapped front end and a ride height that allows the cv's to be flat? This is all i have as of now and i can dead hook on street tires leaving on 7psi and ramping to 18psi.
