    so with the 886's how is your ride? pretty stiff or is it fairly smooth? did you still have to do a good bit of trimming to fit the 285's? sorry so many questions but i am really starting to look seriously into setting up my front suspension correctly and getting rid of the spacer lift.

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    uncomfortably stiff. and yes, i trimmed, and my UCA's are maxed. I gotta install my LR UCA's soon, and that might result in me rubbing the body mounts. I'd stick with 265's if i were you.

    well i will be on 265's hopefully for quite some time still. gonna run these duratracs till they are bald. then i will look at 17" wheels and 285's. the guy at toytec is advising me to go with either 884's and a top plate spacer or 885's and spacer if i think i may change bumpers in the future. my ride is already stiff as hell with the spacer lift anything has to be an improvement. just not real sure about putting another spacer on when i am taking one off, but i def want the full 3" of lift up front.



    do you still have the 885's?

    Okay guys, If everyone is okay with making the date set in stone for the weekend before the 4th then im good for that? We can come up with a central meeting place and everyone can follow me to the hunting club.

    sounds good to me. just let me know and if any of the birmingham area guys want to convoy down there i will try to extend the invite once again.

    travis is there a gas station around the hunting club? cuz i know most of us are gonna have to fill up their trucks before we go offroad. about a 2hr drive for the birmingham folks and prob 2.5 to 3hrs for the huntsville guys.
