Yep, trying to eek out a little bit more ground clearance, just in case I run into any deep ruts or steep cattle guards. They might be a tad bit tall (1"), so I'll probably take them to work and machine them down a little bit so as to not mess up my suspension geometry too much when on the paved sections.

That's what the 1/4" HDPE spacers are for (they are sitting in a box next to it, out of frame)

Brian,
I’d be happy to play navigator. Then again, due to mild dyslexia and frequent use of my medical MJ card (though never when driving), our rally experience could sound something like this…
Ms: “Wide left.”
Brian: (begins to steer left…)
Me: “No, wait! Your OTHER left!”
So I may not be the best choice. (Although…I suppose that could set us up for an epic inertia drift!) J
