I think if the air bag violently threw that horse in your face you could say you were "bucked".... But I would start that with a different letter...... 😁 :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
This will be very fun to watch you build this out..... Especially for me. I am building out a 2 door robin egg blue 23. I will be following for ideas....
I would love to cross paths with you, and I will actually buy that beer. I actually have a set of 1-1/4" wheel spacers for my GMC in the garage at home.... Needed them to fit my tires before I received my diff drop and knuckles that allowed me to remove them... ran them for about a year. I am...
Just to make a point... I am lifted 6.5 inches and running 40s.... I am making lots of compromises....
It does just so happen that I am running the stock wheels with a +30
I think the "world will end" comment was directed towards me.... That is not what I said and please do not put words in my mouth..... What you have works for you... GREAT!.....
All I was saying is that every choice is a balance of compromises... For someone to make an educated decision about a...
This is true... But I do not think you will find that pushing your wheels out and inch or two is going to have a significant effect, or at least one you can actually "feel". Pushing your wheels out with a 0 or negative offset or (in my opinion worse) a wheel spacer.... will have way more effect...
Really torn on that right now... I think I am going to hold off for now. Already have a crawler 5 link sitting in the garage. I am heavily leaning toward the Barnes truss. as long as I can get it to fit with everything else.
The reports on the 4 link are really good. I bet it does ride...
If you are talking money... YES you are correct.... But I have portals and my diff skid just shipped today. Even though my diff is up higher I can still bounce that diff... Bigger reason for the diff skid for me is that I am going to use the DV8 skid (not as nice as the NV but it also covers the...
I have a hard enough time seeing the trail directly in front of my tires that I already have to use a camera.... ;) ... Not sure I would want to diminish what I already have too little of.
I did add the dune flag mount and I get the fishing pole mounts.... But rotopax or a spare?????
The trail...
I must be weird... I see these big ol tail pipes on everything and all I can think about is what a tail dragger... I would beat the living crap out of that thing.... Why?? the muffler is nice and tucked up...
Actually I think Loren and Vaughn make it a trailer rig.... Would be nice to have so much money that you have other people bring your rig to the trail and you just have to meet them there..... :sneaky:
Yes there is some trimming.... Not quite fair to compare mine... I am not sure. I have square fenders as opposed to the round fenders. I am not trimming as much as Tor..... Quinn originally went with 40s and then changed to 38s.... Only a guess but I think it was so that he had NO Trimming...
I am running 4.7 gears with 40 inch tires.... It feels damn close to stock gearing. If you ran 38s you might run a little higher rpm but not dramatically. I am very comfortable on the highway at 80. I am probably within 100 rpm or so of stock.
I do not think that is a fair evaluation since a good portion of the portal housing also acts as a part of the knuckle. But yes the addition of the knuckle is only 10 lbs heavier.
