well they've been on for about 600 miles now and i have noticed the truck to be a bit more sluggish - 4cyl doesnt make much power so i might consider regearing. rides real smooth at low speads, a little rough at freeway speeds (expected) havent taken them offroad yet but i expect them to do well. i'd recomend them and probably buy them again. (so far)

I think I saw you on Clay Road then, or maybe 529 or highway 6 somewhere. I live about 1/2 mile west of barker cypress off clay road on the north side of the street. I've got some, ok, but short trails and obstacles behind my neighborhood. check out the pics on my site. the area is somewhat dwindling down though because of new housing. last time I went back there, with 96LtdYota, I noticed I lost some of the good spots to construction. we can always find some down Fry Road if you want to come over here sometime. PM me and I'll give you my cell number if you want.

Cool truck, Pretty similar to mine! After you regear it helps a bunch. Before I regeared my truck was really slow, but now its probally a bit faster than it was when it was stock. What B/S are those wheels? Do you rub on the pinchweld or valence at all?

3.75 i think, i havent had it flexed at all so it hasnt rubbed, i'm getting ready to attempt to build a new bumper so i'm not worried about the valance, i'll probably take it off if it gets in the way, as for the pinch weld i suppose i could smash it if it gets in the way. what gears did you go to? what was it like as far as an install? i hate almost dieing getting onto the freeway.

Gears are 4.88's, I bought the rear 3rd and front diff off Pirate and swapped them in for mine. Front was a PITA, but the rear was pretty simple. After I put them in it was kinda wierd having my truck not be an insanly slow turd.
