I haven't notched the frame yet. The leaf mount almost touches the ground when it's fully loaded, so even with a notch I'm not going to get much more travel. I got the tires from a dude who imported a massive amount for some odd electric car but NEVER sold any. They fit perfect. nice and low without fender rubbing issues. The front crossmember is about 1" off the ground. I've driven it around thousands of miles at this ride height :)

Here are some comparison photo's of the LSD pulled and the one we are putting back in. The Tag is from when a welded center was in the gear set. The welded center is now in the 4.6 gear set.
