Look's great and I love the color!

I had to bring it back to the alignment shop to have the tie rod adjuster bolts turned out of the way of the lower control arm bump stop. Im going to replace the tall bump stops with some shorter ones, then if that doesnt work I will most likely just trim the perch for the bump stop. have any of you guys ran into this problem?

I think I am missing something here, on a 2wd the original bumpstop is on the rear of the control arm, not the tie rod side at all, maybe post up a pic.

OK nevermind I was thinking you were running stock arm's, I have never run any bumpstop's in the front at all, when I lower the front I take them out, and I've never bottomed one out.

yeah that doesnt sound like a horrible idea. Its pretty nice, I haven't bottomed out yet, Ive dragged mud flap a couple times which I find hilarious.

We'll I replaced the 2 inch bumps with 3/4 inch bumps and seem to have solved the problem, also painted the area behind and below the tailgate satin black, looks good with my light pics to come
