Off work early and took my boy out for some morning air. Happy Friday!

Thanks guys, yeah the rear tire doesn't sit center. I believe the lift and 40s highlight it even more then stock trucks. I wish it did as the clearance is tight where if it was centered it would have a good bit more room.

Couple pictures of the bulletproof lift setup on the truck. Again I agree I wish it was more centered, but not sure how I could adjust it.

I think lift shackles tend to push the center of the axle forward.

Don't forget the drive shaft would need to be longer the more you lift it. I think this is why most kits are built this way so you don't need a custom drive shaft.

you can get a 1" zero rate to move the diff back. (1" thick)
I run one on my truck cause of my shackle flip, I think I was able to move it back 1.5"s
