ROOFGOOF

Hola,

Well at the moment my rig is at my buddys offroad shop awaiting an alignment so I will pick it up on Wednesday, but he sent me a few teaser pics.

MY LIFT - FRONT 4 inch Tacoma procomp IFS lift. (stock shocks and coils).
REAR - LandCruiser Coils and LC shocks. Adjustable Sonoran panhard bar.
TIRES - 285/75/16's on 16x8 LC wheels.
2 inch 4 crawler body lift.

Off with the pics...(more to come soon!)





Comments/questions welcome.

FUZION

HUGE looks good, time for some bigger tires.

bamachem

6" for 285's?

i hope you have tire plans in the works...

d0ubledown

looks good now its time to rock some 37's! haha..

although i'd probably drop to a 1" BL (if any BL at all) and go 35's....

d0ubledown

and then comes regear..and then..a front locker since your in there...and then...



grab some close up pix of the shock setup? i thought those used coilovers..?

ROOFGOOF

No coilovers with this.

You guys make me laugh though You guys are right, now bigger tires, regearing, winch, etc
My tires are pretty much brand new, so I gotta keep them for awhile or it will cost me MORE in a divorce ! LOL

Once I get the rig back, I will take a bunch of pics. So far though, I dont think it looks too bad with the 285's on it. We'll see

ROOFGOOF

One more that I originally didnt use.



From this....before I visited yotatech.com !!! LOL



to this....

It's big alright...what do you use your rig for?

ROOFGOOF

Well, I have found a few new friends with Jeeps (yeah I know)... LOL ! So, my offroading is increasing rather quickly. I work with a friend who owns an offroad shop and he is pretty big into rock crawling, trails, etc... So lately I have been teaming up with him with some big trips planned this year...Carolina and Moab with a few other stops out west ( I am searching for a car trailer at the moment) which will be hauled with my new dodge 3500 diesel.

Paragon adventure park is now gone so that leaves Rousch Creek (within an 1 1/2 hours from me). My wife seems to enjoy it too so that helps.

I'll probally never be a hard core rock crawler etc (mainly cause I dont want to bang up the body of the truck). But I love how it now looks, not to mention a big decision for me was the cost of the lift...with everything, I have less than 500.00 in it ! I wouldnt have been able to do it if the price was higher.

WOW, No probs with clearence now.

BajaRunner

Nah, its just still a baby!

I really like it! If I were to do it over again, Id stick with the 4" lift rather than the 6".

From experience, Id take the BL off if you've got one. Its kinda scary on off-camber areas. But, I think you get the best of both worlds: good CV and tie-rod angles, stock ride, maximized up and down travel and good clearance.

As for everyone else saying its huge, umm aren't most people running 2-3" suspension and 1-2" body lifts?

bamachem

i'm running 2.5" suspension (front) and 1" of body lift, but i have 315's now too...

neliconcept

yeah hes only got about an inch on me if that. so its not that huge

ROOFGOOF

I'll never be able to catch up to you Ian I appreciate your input throughout the lift process. It was a huge help!

If anything I think my front lift has increased alot...at least it looks that way from the pics. I will know more once I get it back and break out the tape measurer.

saulgoode

Nice Lift! and Lookin good, I see you finally got around to getting it all in there.:bigclap:

KyleT

looks big. i cant wait for the "look, i have 37's" thread in the future.

CLEANSR5

She looks savage, maybe shop around for some used tread, or at some yotayards in your area, maybe you can pick up some wheeling tires for cheap.

ROOFGOOF

At this point, only thing "cheap" I can afford is "free" LOL ! So the wife says....

grimpy

Sweet Bro!

20005spd

well its big. tire size is a bit small if you ask me. i plan on running that tire size when i get my 3" lift with no body lift, and i was thinking that would look funny.

why did u go with a body lift if you didnt need one yet?
and why not bigger tires?
