McGaughy's coils & knuckles up front, and McGaughy's flip kit out back with shock extenders. And an alignment.

Did your turning radius take a major hit. I had got used to mine but had to drive a brand new 4x this weekend to put a nav and backup camera in it before we sold it and good lord I forgot how nice it was to turn on a dime.

Mines at 3/5 w mcg spindles and coil relocators and flip in the rear.

Flip kit includes notching the frame, correct?

What is the lowest you can go without nothcing the frame?

I didn't notch my rear with a flip at 3/5 but it appears if you were to go lower you'd have to notch it.
