The 3rz is by far the best modification I have done. The difference on the Rubicon between the 22r and the 3rz is night and day, I highly recommend it. The Elockers are a little work also but it's so worth it to be able to switch the lockers on and off when you need them. Marlin's lift with 35's are a perfect match. You will get a little rubbing on the back of the fenders but no big problem.

I'm a little too far away for that, but it's easy if you do your research.

8T3, How does yout (beautiful!) truck ride on the road? I'm asking because your shackle angle looks to be a little on the steep side. Any chance we could see some close-up pics of the shackle angles?

I post most of my pictures at 800x600. Right click your picture, open with Micosoft picture manager, edit, resize, file-save as....

The truck rides real smooth on the road. Shackle angle has almost no effect on ride quality, it merely locates the rear of the spring. The bottom shackle bolt moves fore and aft, about 1/2" on the road. The angle is important when you start talking about articulation. Mine is the standard Marlin 2" back,6" forward with the front hanger 1" forward. Your choice of springs and shocks determine ride quality. Anyway, here's your pics. And thanks for all the compliments.

8T3, nice rig! What color is that? I want pretty much the exact suspension setup you are running.
