Glad to hear you are enjoying them. Thanks for the positive reply
 
Finally got a minute to try and cycle the suspension this morning. Rears stuff nicely at this level and don't seem to have any interference.

Fronts also stuffed well and the closest area of contact I found was the rear of the front wheel wells, however as shown, there is no contact.

Have you been at full steering lock while driving? Just want to see if you have any paint rubbed off the front sway bar on the passenger side, or KDSS arm on the driver side.

No sir. Been daily driving for last two weeks and at full lock, the only issue has been front inner wheel liners. Below are pics I just took of sway bar and KDSS bracket.

It's time for tires and after some searching by 285 75 17, I came across this thread. I've got a 2" OME lift, SPC UCA's, 1.25" spidertrax spacers (spacers are just for looks as I like the slight poke with stock wheels) and would love to have either these ridge grapplers or KO2's on my fresh RW rims. I don't mind some trimming on the front inner fenders as I'm also replacing the bumper soon.. I'd just like to get some of your impressions after a year or so with your setup. Any issues/changes/lessons learned you'd mind sharing?
 
Zero issues. I'm at two years now and ~50k miles. This is my DD and I have a 45-50 mile commute each way.

Tires have not been rotated as much as they should, but still worn very well and probably still have 10-15k miles left in them. Shamefully, I've not wheeled them very much, but would do it all over again if I could.

He mentioned two tires (Ridge grapplers and KO2s) But you didn’t note which you are referring to... ;)

Pretty sure he has Ridge Grapplers. Cool, thx for the info. Did you ever put your front mudflaps back on or have you noticed any adverse affects from removing them. I'd love to see some shots of your trimmed liners and how they've held up (unless you've already replaced your bumper). Thanks again for the update
 
Correct, I've got the Ridge Grapplers. I did not reinstall the front mud flaps, due to step sliders being installed. No issues with doing this and I live on a gravel road.

I think there are some pics in this thread of the fender liner trimming that was done, albeit not very pretty. I can try and snag some more pics.
