    A slew of pricey stuff my wife hates me for.

    I went back and forth, especially because I originally wanted a 5 speed. Ended up with a trail limo, back up camera, etc. glad I did all said.

    Yeah I would look into a 2" LT setup if you want more height and travel

    Well there is always a 6" drop bracket lift, then you can do a suspension lift on top of that and get up to 9" of lift. There is some cons to a DB lift and they are really more for looks.

    x2 on LT but not for more height. Most of the LT trucks are only lifted 3" or less but they have LOTS of downtravel to make the truck much more capable.

    But in theory you could do that because your CV axles wouldn't be at too steep of an angle

    Ya but no one in their right mind would spend that kinda money on LT and max out their height leaving no downtravel.

    Hey Alex- they are Fierce Attitude 285/70-17. Great tires. Now gotta sell the 5 FJ rims that came with the Attitudes and Falkens that i took off my truck. Will be on R.I. and Eastern CT Craigslist. Craigslist should have a regional sales area. Looking forward to that CT trip if it happens. L8R

    Looks like Fierce Attitude M/T's, judging by the pattern.
    And by the "Fierce" name written on the sidewall :D

    Good. Not new but with normal wear i guess. Think one has a little bubble on the inside edge of the painted area. If you are REALLY interested (you seem to be interested in everything) LOL - I can send you pics of each rim

    Excuses.

    Speaking of disadvantages of cell phones, I took advantage of the rainy weather today to install the auxiliary brake lights I bought for the Suzuki. I've nearly been rear-ended twice already this year; hopefully the extra lights will catch people's attention better. They're plenty bright, but you can't really tell because they overloaded the camera on my phone so they're just blurs of light.

    Alex has an unfortunate obsession with everything he thinks he needs but can't afford.
    Common affliction among TW users, really...
