yea, i realize this isnt specific tech, but its 'wheelin related...
got me a problem. Im gonna have somethin like $2000 by mid summer to play with, and ive been considerin lifting my yukon. some of you may know i was gonna go SAS, but thats too expensive and basically impractical for a daily driver. so i was thinking maybe a 6.5" cepek lift and 34s or 35s.
BUT, i want something i can beat the living snot out of, maybe break, and still have something to drive to and from school. a friend of a friend has a running jeep (i know, i know, but its cheaper than a stock K5 and already lifted) for like $1200. its got 33s on it now. yall know i'd go for a K5 if i found one in that condition for the same price, but right now, that looks like the cheapest second vehicle.
so, heres my problem:
im going off to college in august, and im only gonna be able to take one vehicle. a yukon with an IFS lift would be cool, and be wheelable on mild trails, but its really not anything i can TRULY wheel. that jeep would be a good starting point for a fun trail rig, and as is is gonna be fun. but if i get the jeep, i wont ever be able to drive it, because it'd be 4 hours away at my parents house.
what to do?!
