Safety Freak Parent Help!!!

i'm beginning to think this is just Chris4X4 under a new alias just F*cking with all of us. where are the spiders?

 

This thread...so full of ze fail...

 

Workman is Steve o's hero

Very good advice though^^ If my parents bought me a new truck, all my birthdays and Christmas' would be covered for life about 10 times over.

 

Or James reincarnated...

 

??

 

you asked for it

 

Sorry I posted....isn't that what a forum is for?

 

yes you did post and ask us our opinions and that is what we gave you and you don't want to listen to us. i am in no way a expert on suspension but i do know that it isn't something that you want throw cheap parts at and call it safe

 

I think your question has been answered. Alot of good advice has also been given but it sounds like your mind is made up. You can't really argue that adding a lift or mud tires will increase safety. The "safest" way to lift the truck would be a good suspension lift and the "safest" way to add bigger tires would be an all terrain.

/thread

 

nice use of derp btw i don't think i have seen that one before

 

There are several pages of responses where people have made suggestions as to which way to go. You have a nice, new $30k truck, why would you want to cheap out on the suspension? You blew $1,300 for an in-dash navigation system so you can obviously appreciate saving your money for a quality product. There are a lot of good reasons that spacer lifts are generally disliked. Fact is, they are cheap and they will lift your truck but there are much better options that do not have the pitfalls of a spacer lift. We've given you all the information you asked for so now it's YOUR truck it's time for YOU to make a decision.

 

Sorry for the youthful ignorance, I will take your advice and go with the bilstein lift. I appreciate all of your help and I am sure it will pay off in the long run. Ill call the lift guy and tell him to get me a price on the bilstein lift and install.

 

You would probably be better off and save money getting it yourself from DSM or then let him put it in. The guy you are talking to will probably make a little off of you on the parts.

Edit: Fixed with links.

 

Will do.

 

if you still have the factory tires im pretty sure those are the rugged trails and not the A/T's...
the rugged trails are pretty much crap.

Lentsh?

I bet he traded his taco for a cheby, then somehting else then a taco again then a beatle now back to a taco that his rents bought.

 

You forgot the trade for the H3 because it was cheaper to sell the used Taco for a brand new H3 with no payments

 

oh yea! the tactical H3 that had all kinds of shit but it didnt really have (my wife drives an h3)
