growing a big beard and wearing flannel is the shortest path to a rugged look

can confirm this

I only wear flannel shirts at work doe


For the V, You can either use strut spacers, or OME rear springs to get rid of the rear sag. Anything more than 'leveling' it will need either custom shocks/springs or bigger spacers...

Colorado Mountain Rally sells spacers.

OME rear springs, you'd have to contact a 4x4 shop that sells OME parts and see if they can order you a set.

I wanna know the budget for this build, min cash outlay is about $2K for 'the look' - not including flannel. otherwise I'm wasting my time here.
