    Found a 2001 v6 at auction for a decent price. 173k miles. Looks like it was lifted a few inches with spacers and blocks with some tires that are 255/85r16.

    I had one of these in my early 20's but I rolled it down a mountain. So its time to play. I'm in South Texas now thank goodness no mountains. I'll be looking to put 33x10.5 tires

    Need to replace rear leafs they are shot along with all the shocks. I've been looking and it looks like a kit from ome is what will work for me. How much should I concern myself with getting to upper control arms?

    Ive thought about it and I don't really need that much past the 33's that are on it. So I'm going to purchase an OME liftkit to restore ride quality. Then pretty much drive the tires until they are done then put some BFG ATs on. I don't really wheel just for fun anymore but I do a lot work in the ranches and farms out here and during our little moonsoon season it can get pretty challenging to get around out here unless your on the blacktop. ....and rock sliders ...i need rocksliders
