if it was white I would get this, don't want to have to paint it

Yes what @SuperBad said, I ran 5100's before with 887 coils and it got right at 2.75". Was a good ride too, not too stiff. 887's is what I would recommend. 888's are good as well but I hear much stiffer compared to the 887.

This was the stance with that setup and a toytec aal.

 

Would be cheaper to buy a new one at that point

 

No he wants the stock witch is fine but I'd have to drive to San Antonio and switch them there and get an alignment...

 

Interesting you've heard the 888's as being stiffer than the 887's since they have the same 600lb coil rating.

 

well they are longer, adding more height, so they add more stress/pressure to the front end if I am thinking correctly. Who knows, I do not have first hand experience with them

 

I ran 888’s with OME, they were not super stiff when I had just my front skids and rock sliders. Plush once I got my steel bumper on.

 

Mmmmm shit, got that damn 5k right on Saturday morning of Mega Run just like last year. Guess my ass is sitting in a passenger seat like last year again since I won’t be out there until Saturday around 11am... maybe I can bribe Craig with volunteering and such...

 

Doesnt hurt if u went to elementary, middle, some high school and college with him also

Donating a winch and some arb goods got me in the gate last year

 

Why are all your 5k's during wheeling events. You need to schedule better!

 

I think the better question is why is he running?!?!? Lmao That shit sucks!

 

I know why hes running. @ETXTacoma wants to look sexy and has lost a lot of weight! I agree though, I hate running.

 

Sup, hope everybody has a safe happy holiday break!

​

 

Happy holidays to you and your family!

 

Thanks Jim! Cheers brother

I'm ready for some prime rib

 

EPIC!!!!! Check out the 1st post!

 

Mary over at Headstrong told me not to go with billi's on the 886 spring. They can't handle the rebound. I have the 90021's and 886's on mine.
I actually love the ride on the hwy, but..... the offroad capabilities went to shit, they won't compress near as much as the stock ones. I had intentions of getting a sos hybrid bumper and winch, but a jackass moment at HF made me spend my $$$ elsewhere. If your buddy wants to drive my truck around to see if he likes it let me know. I do have full armor and sliders, so his may ride even worse if he doesn't have any additional weight up front.

 

You be safe too. I'll be at work... getting double pay at least!

 

Damn! No rest for the wicked wheelers

 

Someones heart is bound to give out with all the family gatherings. I usually work every holiday for the pay and so I don't have to do the family thing. I'll go see the parents for dinner at least.
