Also, leveling kit some have issues with the front cv’s rubbing. Don’t quite know what to do about that yet but it might not even be an issue. Some have an issue, some don’t.

[quote=""DCIV""]Husky floor mats don’t have the correct carpet nipple. So they are getting returned. They fit perfect minus that.
Wife didn’t like them anyways, she wants something more carpet but better protection than factory....any thoughts?

It's either carpet, or rubberized like Weather Tech, Husky, etc. There is no combo. I'm really happy with my Weather Techs.
Also, still waiting on pics.

Leveling question. Looking at this picture, could that CV ever hit that bolt at any travel in the suspension?

I'm just in amazement that you posted a picture.
Kudos.
Oh and is your axle at full travel? BTW that cv angle is pretty extreme.

Not likely but I would prefer a longer shock instead of a spacer block.
But TBH I would lower the rear over lifting the front

Front air dam has already scraped pulling into the garage, it needs a little help. Yes, lowering the back would be my first thought to. No one has suggested a longer shock anywhere, always just spacer.

Lowering the rear will bring the front bumper/air dam (anything ahead of hte front wheels) up some.

I bet less than 2inches though. I really bet on the angle we come into the driveway at its not letting the front up. Maybe I will video tape that and post it soon. It all looks normal till you turn.

Thats good to know. It just doesnt have as smooth of ride as I thought it should. Little bigger tire and nicer tire will help but that will be when these wear out some.
