    Thought I saw something along those lines somewhere.

    I use my 265/70/17 duratracs for daily driving and I have a set of 255/85/16 maxxis bighorns for wheeling, but I can't wait till my duratracs are worn out so I can get a bigger tire. What size are your Mtrs? I'm looking forward to seeing how you like them.

    wench?

    might be tough to fit in a box, but it looks like you've been doing good finding these up there :cool:

    but 80+lbs of winch and cable would be a good penny...we could do some research if you'd like though..but shipping would definitely be a killer

    my thoughts exactly....can't wait to see them mounted this weekend..i hope i don't have to do too much work just to drive around with them...full stuff, i'm sure i'll have some work to do

    I have the Fabjunkie kit. I bought them from sytfu510 when he went back to the stock hangers. I can't remember the length of the shocks. I have it written down somewhere. I'll find it today. I had a bit of bad luck a week or so before Moab last year and just needed something to replace it. Went to Desert Rat and bought some cheapo Rancho's that were 3+ over the measured stock length. They work great so far.

    Factory. But the previous owner when they added the Revtek leveling kit they added the spacer for the brake lines. But there is a shop here in town that I'm gonna be talking with today that is gonna build me some lines to size for about 50 bucks.

    Near as I can figure.....previous owner didn't change out the rear shocks when the leveling kit went in. Then I got it and I kept doing this to the original rear shocks.......too much travel and weight not enough shock......So I kept using them as limiting straps and after a while of snapping those straps tights it just finally gave out.

    Although I didn't notice it till my dad needed to haul some rock with the truck and he pointed it out to me. But it still got done.
    And still managed to haul rock on a busted shock......this is after we empited about half of it......

    Pretty much. Hopefully (won't happen before Moab this year) I'm gonna get one of JLee's relocation kits and add that on the back. But running w/o shocks might be the way to go. Softer ride anyway????:D

    what you need to do is have your truck loaded up with shit people want shipped up there and save some money on shipping for large items...

    they pay to ship your truck right?
