Okay so i'm leaning towards the SOA rear and Rusty's 4.5" up front. What size tires is that gonna clear?

32's or 33's depending on your fender trimming.

So howbout with 1.75" coil spacers? Enough for 35's w/trimming? I'm a little worried that only 4.5" will make the rear look higher than the front.

there are easy ways to lose lift from the rear (shorter shackle, flatter leafs, etc) and easy ways to add lift to the front (coil spacer, stacking coil isolators) so just get the 4.5 and see how it sits.

with a 4.5" lift, fender trimming and bumpstopping you can fit 35s.

the biggest thing is 4.5" is really pushing the ride quality with short arms, and if you go even higher it starts getting real bad. i used to have 4.5" coils and an extra 1" from some stacked coil isolators, the ride sucked, but it worked.

Yeah i was looking at the longarm kit but dayum they get expensive.
