  1. I also lost one probably 8 years ago now. It just spun on the rubber. I was 30 miles up in the snow and no power steering was how I first noticed. Had to get a buddy to deliver one and change it in the snow.
  2. will do next is what suspension to use leaf or coial leaf is way easy
  3. well here is the plann i came up with today first i don't need a dd wheeler and she dosent want a wheler she has a brand new CHEVY HHR wich she love scord hig in crash tests bla bla i don't want payments on my wheelr i need a 4 seat wheeler so here is what she i and the guys at work csme up with 1998 durango sas d60 front 60 rear 208-231 doubler 37 irocks off the toyota sell all but the toy becous i have had it for ever dd the toy her dad just gave me a 91 surburban tow rig i use it more than he dose with the stipulation that i sell all of my rigs. use the mone from the rigs to build the durango.
  4. thought of that got shut down here is my list of rigs 1989 toyota x-cab built 5.29 duals 37 irocks main rig 90 comanche beater wheeler 88 xj freebie not road safe 1986 single cab f350 1981 f250 single cab on 35s 1974 f150 on 36s 1986 j10 on 35s 1988 toyota x-cab on 33s 1998 durango wrecked rebuilder 1985 ford ranger on 32s her question is am i willing to have just 2 rigs wheeler and tow rig daily driver. Also it need to hold all of us while on the trail and getting there comfortably, She has a brand new HHR wich is good but we all need to be able to go camping and wheeling. I don't think her request of me making the list a lot smaller is to much. She has supported every choice i have made including my spending 13k on just my toyota last year.

    ever wish

    Do aney of you with built rigs ever wish thay wern't so built, I have a 89 toyota on 37' irocks dual cases with lockers front and rear. It has decent flex. Most trails are not much of a challange aney longer. i have had severail rigs over the last years and all built about the same. I do not have the money to travel to MOAB every chance i get. I lived in MOAB for 2 years it was a blast in every rig i owned. From my stock f250 to my way built samuri. In my area ther isent much i had more fun in my toyta when it was 33s and 4' suspension lift open open so dose aney one else wish ther rig was less built
  25. I am not looking to get into an argument here. It doesn't matter how everybody else takes a measurment as long as your start and finish reference points are the same. I could have measured from the roof down and still got the same result. Simple addition and subtraction are pretty easy to do in my head. also, I did state that the rear was lifted approxiamately 3" more in my post, not just that it was higher. :wall: Anyways, thats enough af that. So I was just about to order new 4" leafs for the rear, but decided to try some 2" spacers for the front first. I am satisfied with the end result and am going to move forward with the SOA. Raising the front 2" dropped the rear by 1". If the 4wd shop that sold me the coils would have sold me XJ/MJ specific coils, I would have been further ahead, but they assured me that they would work. I will try to get some pics tomorrow. I think it will look and perform killer. its hard on here if you don't mesure like every one else
