    Haha yea. I'm going to school in Lima OH. 6 hours away. I figure I'm better off keeping the taco.


    You know anyone from Russell county at WKU?

    Angle your shocks a bit more forward and the 12" will suit you fine. Its all in cycling to get everything set up perfect ;) and holy shit you need brake lines lol

    Look into hellwig swaybars. Youll most likely need to weld some tabs to the axle and maybe the frame. Is there a reason you need the rear sway bar?

    They are 100% in rain and dry. Good MPGs, handling, and noise.

    I am willing to sacrifice the above for better snow traction. when new they were about satisfactory. with 30,000 miles on them, i need more turn-in confidence in the snow. it understeers like a bitch in slush. then on the other hand it sometimes oversteers in powder, idk its just very touchy.

    in the mud they get caked up and slip, but with momentum they are ok. def no BFG AT2.

    to sum it up, they are a quality agressive highway tire.

    i will probably go with either 265/70 or 75 duratracs next. if i were in florida the revo2s for sure.

    Thanks man. You think the revo 2's are that much better than the original revos? What lift are you running, fatbobs?

    i only have experience with the revo2. i have fat bobs but 6lug SR5 shocks in the rear.

    the rear was just replaced with a custom alcan leaf, and the total chaos/SAW midtravel has been on order for the last 5 weeks.

    i would sell the fat bobs kit if you need.

    When you get your new mid travel kit in, let me know. How many miles are on your fatbobs kit?
