And so it begins...getting REVO'd

Ok,

Decided to keep the 03 V8 inspite of the lure of 280 hp 05 VVti.

Anyway, gonna get the 03 how I want it starting with 265/70/17 Revo's tomorrow.

Got a pretty good deal by going in with a bud and getting 2 sets. Should be able to get an NE front end lift early in 05 as I leave for the UK for 2 weeks (to see family) next week so out of time this year.

Add some sliders and the install the Vi-air which is on its way and we may have something.

Now it ARB will only deliver us a clean looking bumper...

True dat except this is a daily driver with less than 13k so I have to maintain normal outward appearance for warranty etc.

I think folks run into issues with 285s as they need to get rims with different backspacing so it gets complicated.
