    Call me a bro i cant remember the last time I went wheeling with my truck, I slapped on 35s with no intentions of clearing them completely and the truck only sees action to take the bike to the track :(

    When you guys went LT did you think you'd use it more often than you do? I slapped kings on but with the amount of dirt my fj sees, an ome setup would have been fine.

    I re-fell in love with my truck a few months ago when I got the rear done. I've went out so much over the past few months when you just revalved my rear bypasses the oil was already black and frothy.

    Yup same here. once I just got the front LT done I hit every single trail I could. Hell I made it a priority to hit more dirt than pavement on my way to work everyday. got to about even. 15 miles in the dez and 15 on the street. and I love every second of it. my goal when I get home is to find the 30-40 miles straight to work with no pavement.

    well it was definitely an upgrade but it hinders sooo much. the rear end bucks all over the place. if you hit a bump or "jump" at the right angle its smooth but I will let you know the major difference when I get the rear finished in December. I snapped a leaf spring after months of beating on it and 2 mojave road trips. The rear end is solid for as fast as you are going to go. BUT you cant hit whoops without bucking and losing control. now for fire roads and the occasional bump its great. IMO if you are only going to do Front LT might as well just go FULL MT instead. A full MT truck can out perform a Front only LT any day. I have a few action shots on my photobucket of me going thru some whoops as fast as I felt comfortable then RJ going thru the same section faster and you can see the difference night and day.
