    That’d be sick. But probably need more than just big tires.


    But yeah you’ll have to figure out. Way to move your front wheels way forward. Like way forward.

    2” forward from bAllpro LT made it so I could clear 37s on my 2006. I couldn’t have gone bigger without more forward


    What gears you gonna do

    Had to winch 3 times on Fordyce.
    1st time was from mud on a shitty rock garden
    2nd time was due to insufficient breakover angle on winch hill 4
    3rd time was slipping a tire off a rock, lifted a tire, and ended up in a goofy angle on winch hill 5, threw in the towel there, I wasn't going to flop on the last obstacle on the trail

    5.38 rear 5.29 front

    Missed most of the conversation but I think I'd only be comfortable going to 37's on an IFS first gen if I had the following things: RCV long travel axles, long travel, and an FJ80 FF rear. After running 35's double locked for 2 years, I feel like this would be the most reasonable setup. Weak point would still be the stub shaft though. Only snapped one cv and one stub in those 2 years though so :notsure:

    I think he has a second gen but the same principles still apply. I don't think it will hold together for a length of time on anything more than fire road wheeling. Guys get away with 40's on 8" R&P's with pickups and first gens that are nice and light but toss in a 6500+lb second gen and I can't imagine they will last long.

    I have been victimized and basically raped by these hurtful words. Not only so I demand financial compensation, but I also think the perp should be doxxed and lose their job. Also I’d like to speak to the manager.

    I called trail ready yesterday. They said they still don’t have the blanks. 2 weeks maybe. They said mine are “first to be made”. Wonder many people they say that to. If it’s going to be 3 months just tell me 3 months.


    Had some time to get rear rock lights back on. Probably rip them off pretty quick we’ll see.
