    Well im dumping the eibachs cause it dont sound like they will give me 3 inches of lift up front with the 5100's. Just going to run 1/4" top plate spacer and 5100's set a 2.5. I know that will give me 3 inches of lift that I want.

    I ran eibachs just fine at 3in but as I said before it depends on if you have a 1st or 2nd gen.....


    1st gen=3in
    2nd gen=1.75ish.. not sure off the top of my head


    Edit. Obviously I'm too dumb to realize this was posted in 1st gen lol.. I blame the lack of sleep

    After I get the lift. Its another long wait before I get the tires cause I do seasonal work and thats cutting grass when Im out of school. Im going to go with the Dick Cepek mud country 33x12.50's any word on are they good tires? Also, How many miles do you get out of these tires?
