Preperations for an Overland/Camp build

I wonder if a superduty coil spring swap would just be the best way to go. Like @Thewespaul did to the shop truck.

So I decided to buy some new wheels. Just bought some American racing 16x9 inch ar172s to use with the 315s. Im gunna run the stock suspension now, my bumpers trimmed. I feel like I def have room in my wheel wells for another 2 inches of tire so I will be fine. At some point ill just do the rsk to level it out.

The shop truck is 2wd, project jerry is probably what you’re thinking of. That truck has axles from a 2003 6.0, which is still a leaf spring Dana 60. The coil spring swap is actually easier than the early superduty leaf 60 swap on the older trucks, but it’s what I had laying around

I was only mentioning it because of the articulation you can get out of it but I really don't plan on crawling, it would make for a hell of a ride though haha, my 06 6.0 was a dream to drive. Too bad the motor would never stay running right.
