Looks pretty good, but I'd ditch the wheels and tires.

I would ditch the idea that the chassis needs to be 7" off the ground.

Roll with the big tires, trail rigs are much more fun when you are not hung up on every little twig.Then you can switch to smaller tires and wheels when you want it to be a scaler.

I think it would look better lower. Don't forget to consider driveline angles, that would be extremely steep. Keep up on the build, I can't wait to see it done!

Tire size wont change driveline angles, but lift blocks,shock lengths do if you need those.
