    I'll get them from toytec if they give me a TW discount. Selling the house this week. Should have the extra funds in a month. Hard not buy now and replenish savings later.

    What rear do you have? And what are you going to run. Why are you changing? I have dakars and 5160 resi's right now. Just going to upgrade to the icon 2.0 extended travel resi's.

    After seeking keaks snapped light racing. I decided to go with something else. And as for tires. I worried how the mtrs would do in the snow. I got a lot and from what I've heard the duratracs so well.

    Duratreks I'm sure are better in the snow. I've never had the MT/Rs in the snow. I'm running the Icon 2.0 RR shocks in the rear, the same ones you are going to get. They are badass...I'm trying to save up for a SUA kit.

    So you are happy with the 2.0s. I had a hard time deciding between the 2.0 and 2.5

    I went with 2.0s mainly for price and with the remote resi i don't think I can heat them up enough to be an issue.

    I don't know if the 2.5's are worth 400 more. I'm ready to sell this house and put this new suspension on. This is going to be the longest month.

    No doubt! Lots of guys did it on the subi forum I was at before, but not so much here *shrug*

    Slowly working my way through your build - good stuff!

    Btw, I'm always down for some wheel/mtb/camping trips... Just sayin'.
