Probably deavers

 

which deavers? the more info you give us, the more accurate information we give back...

 

am I missing something? That DMZ Jeff's Cage leaves the whole bed.

This looks like no bed at all:


and then he chopped his bed so the wheel arches would fit over where the back wheels are now, and he has his spares in the bed...........


damn.......that's a lot of bedspace





also:

what is that thing in the middle of the bed going up and to the left.
edit: I guess it's the fuel filler (actual name?) but that seems like an inconvenient spot if you wanted to use the bed...

 

fuel... filler...

 

He would have a wider axle. It was stated that you can make one like that if your axle is wide enough to get the shocks outside the frame on a 1st gen. I dont want to change my axle.....yet

 

I have a guy selling 4 brand new never mounted 35x12.5x17 toyo mts for 900, im considering picking up some 17 inch kmc enduros and running those and just selling my old setup, what do you guys think?

Ive got 16x8 helos now and 285 KM2s.

 

Sounds like a pretty good price to me if they really are brand new, I say go for it! And from what I hear the toyos are a pretty good tire. I know a few people that run em

 

yeah im quoting out going to 4.56s right now. I just blew the rear of my yj so Im going to gear that to 4.88s and see if I can get a deal out of the shop.

 

That I havent figured out yet.

 

epic...

 

wow

 

i don't even understand........

 

Honestly stock gears and 35s aren't as bad as everyone thinks or says . Not going to tell you that a regear wouldn't be a really wise thing to do in the near future because your mileage will suck and you probably wont be happy with the loss in power but its not the worst thing in the world.

The toyos are a great tire, I have seen full size trucks get 40k+ out of them with even wear and little to no chunking but keep in mind that they are pretty heavy.

 

holy cow

I second this

 

third it. I can barely see a difference besides some bottom end power loss and a little more gas guzzling on street then when I had 33's

 

I just love the pickup from the SC and I really want to keep it. I feel like I have ADD now im feeling wait and SUA the rear then worry about this shit later. I ordered the solo motor mount gussets last week so Im going back in for a little more fab and talk about the spring under.

 

I absolutely hate the power loss from stocks too 33s. Can't wait to get 4.56s
