That's why I recommended staying with factory coils. No need to go to Teraflex coils Ann bilstein shocks

Thanks so much guys! Now while I agree that he won't wheel it that much it needs to look wheel-able. All of our vehicles run a full mud terrain. No all terrains allowed on this farm. Thanks a bunch. Looking like a 3.25" ish lift, 35s, 17s, and some lights.
