Thanks guys, i wasn't shooting for quite that much rake (2") rather between 1-1.5". If the front goes down maybe i'll come up with some type of 1" level for the front. Too bad my bilstiens don't have 3 adjustments - they are on the lower of the 2 right now, which i assume the lower adjustment is for 6" lift and the higher adjustment is more for 8" of lift.

I did a slight amount of trimming to the front valance and flares last night, hopefully after i get it aligned it will help from the tires rubbing at full lock.

Josh - we did use the new bolts you sent, ended up with a few extra as well. Thank You for that and your help with everything, i was fortunate enough to have really nice people to help me with this project and i appreciate it. Thanks again
