Alabama thread!

Man after I installed that ARB bumper and winch I'm not happy about how it lowered my front. I have 886 coils too! I'm thinking some Icon coilover's are going to happen sooner than later.

 

*cough* Kings *cough*

 

That's weird because I have 885's and my Pelfrebuilt bumper and Recon winch that weighs about 220lbs together didn't drop my front end at all. I also have the OME HD shocks/springs, that may be thee difference.

You could do a 1/4" OME strut spacer and correct the problem on the cheap if you're not looking to drop a ton of coin at the moment.

 

I'm already running a spacer on my drivers sider. Part of me thinks it's just more noticeable now that I have the bumper hanging off the front? Maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to drop some coin.

 

I've been looking at some nice coilovers, unfortunately they are pretty low on the list of things I'd like to accomplish before Moab.

 

I think I lost about 3/4" to 1" with the ARB bumper. I was hoping the 886 coils would be a little firmer.

 

Look at that fancy animation.

 

Ha super nerd in action.

 

Nothing major, debagged it, dipped the grey lower front valance, anytime fog mod, cut the antenna, just a few odd and ends. All ideas I got from this forum. I've only had my truck since July so just getting started. On the list is, bilsteins, mesh grille of some type, currently working on the radio displays. Always something to do. Oh yeah, I've done all interior led's.

 

Nice

 

How much did everyone's gas mileage drop with 33s?

 

I dropped less than 1 but im a 255/85 if ur goin 285 its gonna be wider and heavier so it will be a noticable amount more i would think

 

At stock my truck got about 21mpg highway I now get a little over 17 with 285/70s

 

If anyone is needing any Taco Armor vvvvvv

I'm getting 14 to 15 mpg, but I also have about 500lbs in armor on the truck.

 

im consistently getting 21-21.5 during the summer with a 20 mile commute to work 1/2 no stop ~55mph 1/4 rural back roads minimal stops ~40mph and 1/4 stop and go city more or less, but I drive very light footed and coast long ways when possible

 

Snorkel drag........

 

There's no telling what all contributes to my loss. Tires have the be the large contributor but I've done so much haha

 

Took my before a little late! Thanks rrentrop

 

With my truck lifted, factory bumpers and tires, I would only get 16.5 going to Florida. That was at 70-75 mph and without the speedo correction modifier.
