Didn't you write MT only?

 

No, I wrote you can only get MT in the following models. Not that these models were only available in MT.

 

I think you guys are trying to say the same thing

 

I suppose it’s a good thing the Pro isn’t available in an Access Cab (especially with a stick)… don’t think I could’ve resisted the temptation!

 

Got you

 

Electric Lime green acess cab would look incredible

 

It would indeed

 

Anyone know how much the pro fox coilovers go for used? Can only find what they go for with the rears/ complete setup.

 

I rarely see them seperated, but fwiw i often see a full set in my city for roughly 1000-1500. Half of the time they have eibach spring or wescott collar.

 

That’ll be my situation! I’ll be transparent about why I’m ditching them, however.

 

Can we get a new poll on the % of Pro owners have swapped out wheels and modified their suspension?

 

Done. I would have kept it bone stock, but it's a slippery slope...figured the 1.25" Eibach spring upgrade would level it out and keep it feeling stock, but the springs caused problems. Giving Ironman FCP fronts a chance now, but I'm keeping the backs OEM, sans the 1" block from eibach.

 

Yeah, all in good fun. I think that Pro owners get a bad rap from people because of the price mark ups, and then get it even worse when they upgrade suspension, wheels etc (basically the reason for going Pro), because the argument from the non Pro camp is that you could have saved thousands and just purchased an OR with the same exact 4WD systems, locker etc., and used the savings on modifying the said OR to their exact spec.

 

I still have oem suspension and wheels, which for me has been extremely difficult to hold firm on. I offroad bi-weekly and the damage is adding up pretty quickly

 

Yah, my impression of at least MSRP pro purchasers during the pandemic is that you can get a MT pro for not much more than an OR (mine was 46k). I’m certain I saved money because I financed and would have spent more cash modding it than what I’ll spend before I sell it. End of the day, we’re all just trying to have fun with our adult toys, and modding is addictive.

 

What are you waiting on? If you’re trashing on it, it seems you’ve outgrown the suspension.

 

Just installed a Wescott TRD lift kit Saturday, definitely have me a better look, I will change tires once these wear out and go bigger. I didn't mind spending a little extra money for a little taller ride, but that's just me.
