Looks good. You should get those steps that go down when you open the door for the rear door J/K. Did you have problem with wheel sensors throwing off ABS is you had it?

2-3" lift springs + zero rate (move axle back) = no more block?

Is that what you were thinkin' too?


So you ended up with about 8" of lift?

 

[fabjunkie]

THATS 8'2" LOL

13'2".....8"2"....potatoes.....potahtoes

no updates Ive been busy with a remodel project in my house..started with mold in one wall...turned into 8 walls..all cabinets..studs..baseboards carpet, some tile,sinks, counters and a crap load of plumbing.. so new everything, the studs are rotted to hell. now looking into kitchen cabinets and a host of other fun things as well.



I have 3 weeks to finish 3 projects..wait 4 projects counting the house, catch up on work and 2 trips out of town..

i plan to put aside a night or two this week to finish the engine cage, revalve the shocks and deal with mounting the t-case so I get send the driveshafts to get made.

well see what happens by the weekend.. pics to come

im to skeeeerd to loose my driveshaft right now

10 inches of lift on a stock shaft..its a time bomb im hoping it goes to hell any second that way I have to do the t-case and shafts even though im swamped

 

[Jason4x4]

well, get off the computer and get to work, you still have the whole night ahead of you.

 

[supersize75k5]

I need input on tires..


I cant choose and right now im leaning on new iroks but they will just wear to quick,

ideas?

toyos are stupid $$$$$

I love my xl's but they are not wide enough

[Avery4jc]

MT Baja Claws... wear nicely, look great, good AT tire.... and they just took a $100 price hack across the board... used to be like $400 a tire for 38.5/16-15's but now they're $300...

BUT I do like Iroks... I've been tempted to get a set once my Baja Claws are worn out...

Keep an eye on Interco's website...they update their BLEM section pretty often and even if you can't find a full set of w/e you looking for you can normally find a couple, then pay full price on the remaining tires you need...
