Thanks Man - your rig is sweet to!

 

looks very nice. Is it just me or does your truck look a tad lowered?

 

Truck looks sweet. Now it needs a leveling kit.

 

thanks Random, its standard height though

thanks Buxton, Im gonna wait on that, It rides so nice now and im still getting good mpg's.

 

leveling kit won't affect mpg's, ride IMO suffers a little but not much from my experience.

came out awesome though! i thought you were planning on 20's? i do like it alot and definitely jealous

 

yes, i was originally going with 305/55/20 but 2 reasons changed my mind.

1. 20 cost more
2. I prefer to have the extra sidewall, the 20's are cutting it close. I do occasionally go light off road, plus theres many potholes here in NJ.

Im sure the level, has to cut your mpg's even if its minimal, at almost $4 gal. im trying to watch the pedal.

you have the same truck right, any mods in your future?

 

nice truck and nice wheels!! What made you choose those tires? How do you like them?

 

I was all set to go with Terra Grapplers, but my guys at the 4 x4 shop highly recommended the DC's. Both the owners have them on there trucks and there getting great mileage out of them. I know these guys over 10yrs, so i value there opinion. They told me a few guys weren't crazy about the nittos, saying they were to soft, the truck was alittle jumpy. These tires so far are awesome, I can feel them gripping the road way better than stock. They have a good amount of tread as well. The Nitto seemed to not have as much. They also are pretty quiet on the highway. Will have to wait awhile before we go thru snow, so far im loving the look of my truck now. Next mod is exhaust, when i sell the OEM tires/wheels.

thanks for the compliment

 

in the immediate future no plans, maybe a toolbox depending on how the money situation is towards the end of summer. all of my money is going towards my land cruiser to get it on the road before i move up to dallas in august.

 

If I had a newer truck, I'd wait until the factory shocks were worn out and just replace them with bilstein leveling struts. That's what you should do.

 

The monster's were way up on my list. I love them. They look great on your truck.

Do the level. You won't have any regrets.

 

Did your MPG's drop from it?

 

Buxton, how are they different than a level?

 

They are a level, Just instead of being a spacer they are an adjustable coilover that you use to get the increased height. Plus I hear they have a better feel than the stock ones.

 

OK, now i understand, i was confused what they were, i saw that alot of people are using them. I.ll have to check that out or wait till more money becomes avail,

and i thought i wasnt gonna do many mods with this truck..lol


thanks
