Started mounting all the tires to the beadlocks. A long and meditative process

Trackbar tacked in place. We originally started with an inside the frame upper mount, but ended up using an outside frame mounted upper trackbar mount

And I thought that I had big plans for my rig. Looks like quite the endeavor. Can't wait to see how it looks when all back together.

You still got those tie rods or wheel spacers?

I need to confirm the tie rods, but I actually have two sets of wheels spacers. Both are Bora and hubcentric for the H3. 2” and 1.5”. The 2” spacers have maybe 100 miles on them, the 1.5” have several thousand miles.

The rear shocks are King 2.5” shocks with a 10” stroke, they’re pretty long so we did a custom crossmember to mount the shocks higher up
