Should be done sometime in the middle of September...hopefully. Everything else is ready to go.

Technical info, hrmm...well the fronts I had them NOT weld the front spacer on so that when I do upgrade to the Strange drag brakes, all I have to do is remove the spacer. Then the wheel will tuck 3/4" more. On the rears, I had no spacer included as my new rear end will be coming with Strange drag brakes. I narrowed my new Strange 12 bolt 3 inches per side and got 5" backspacing on my wheels.

I have heard of guys going with 3rd gen 12 bolt dimensions for a little more backspacing but any more than that you have to start relocating suspension components? right or wrong? Just wondering. I like the deep dish look myself.

It depends on tire as whether you had to relocated suspension or not. The first piece would be the lower control arms and they still remain in the stock mounts, they're just moved over with offset spacers. Its only possible with double rod ended LCAs. The springs is the only other piece of suspension that I know has to be changed/moved and that's accomplished with a smaller diameter spring. Everything else should be fine. Now this all depends on the size of course and a few other variants. My old set of Bogarts had a 7.5" backspacing with the spacer. I no longer run a spacer because I'll be running the Strange rear drag brakes.
