    Trimmed my hair, went kayaking out at Moss Landing, gave the Taco an oil change and did the air filters, cleaned up the mess I made because I forgot to put a catch below the oil filter, hit the grocery store, and now I'm making burgers and potatoes. Today is a good day.

    My thought exactly.

    Last time I camped at Rubicon springs someone towed in a CJ that looked like a smashed can. Apparently the guy got out on Cadillac* to check something and either his gear popped out or his ebrake wasn’t set.

    He said it was pretty heart breaking to see his rig roll into the canyon.

    Little this. Little that 4x4 Swap’d PreRunner
    12” is standard. AFAIK, they all use the same spring as standard coilovers, only difference in standard and ext is the removed internal bump spacer for the extra down travel.

    spring rates will differ based on brand. Icon uses 650# while king/fox use 600#.

    Report back with conditions. Had a buddy go up there this weekend and he said that they got snowed & hailed on. Assuming they started from the west entrance.

    If the coil diameter is the same sure but adding 2" free height and 100#'s is gonna be a harsh ride. What are you trying to do?

    I have sliders and skids and I was going to add a winch with my new steel hybrid, but I cant add the winch with 600# springs. I found a set of 14" 700#s for a decent price so I'm just wondering and trying to decide
