    im looking to get the 9" no matter how i gotta get it lol. Would rather loose the spacer for looks and ride quality but if i have to ill got the toytec/5100 route (kinda like the white coils anyways lol)

    and the 40's i have already sitting back at the house on another truck i just wanna see what'll take to get them on this yota

    seems he could have gone bigger unless he just didnt want to. Ive ran 37's on my 6" rubbed pretty good bit but nothing a cab mount chop couldnt fix ;)

    i still think thats the route im gonna go though is the toytec w/5100's and new UCA's then ill determine from there whether or not to go body lift. <--would rather not but if it gets me to where i wanna be then so be it.

    id think only problem you would run into is alignment and possibly UCA clearance. Mean hell thats kinda the setup id be doing anyways instead of the spacer though im doing adjustable coils

    good question lol i have no clue i just know its a bad thing.

    maybe too much of an angle?? instead of level. i know it will reflect in your alignment if the UCA is maxed bcuz they wont be able to adjust your toe or camber enough due to the uca holding it back

    I've seen on some of the trucks here, with 3" cranked up coilovers, the UCA will be pulled downward while the truck is sitting on level ground....instead of level, like it is on our DB kits.

    This is not good.

    I dont think that those factory coilovers will work for you because the spacer will not match up for your lift. Here's mine before and after the coilovers i installed the ICON's and the factory bilstein's. note the spacer difference.

    Hes showing that the coilover overall length is shorter than the stock billy with lift spacer...now his stock ones have spacers in them already. .so if you add the lift spacers plus the stock billies with the revteks..you will be even taller than what shown in picture

    So I just ordered another set of tires. I really wanted another set of KM2s but they were 55 bucks more per tire than the nittro trail grapplers. So I decided to try out the nittros. I got 35x12.5x17. Anyone else have any experience with these? I'm kind of worried about them being 9-10lbs heavier than the KM2s

    No experience from me but I'm very interrested in these as my next tire.

    By the way, how many miles did your KM2's last? That's what I have now.

    40k and they would have lasted longer if I would of had a garage to get them out if the sun so much. I have some tread left, but they are starting to sun crack in between the tread. And if I could afford them again I would have bought them again

    I've got 35 x 12.5 x 18" Trail grapplers and they are great tires. They push right through the snow and mud. I don't notice anything as far as extra weight. All I really notice is the $1400 I have to spend on a new set. :eek:

    Okay that's good news
    Yea I got a great deal from a local dealer. I got them for 285 a tire. So I'll only be $1,221.00 OTD with them mounted and balanced. That's like 200-250 cheaper than the BFG KM2s

    so do you lose height with the icons that are made for the 6''-7'' lift?? anyone know a place that you can get coilovers that will fit the stage 1 lifts but still crank up 3" more?
