Cool....love the Red. That turtle is faster than most of the drivers down here...

 

[kj924]

Haahahahahahahah

 

[Dave]

Nice turtle........errrr I mean jeep.

The black soft 8's look really good on your red jeep. Is your spare inside?

Dave

 

[kj924]

Nice pics, what tire size are you running...are those 15" or 16" rims?

They are 15" Tony with a 31x10.5" Dayton Timberline MT

No spare yet, I am waiting on a couple of tires from a person locally here. I am going to get a roof basket today actually, so the spare is going up there.

 

[TruLiberty]

those tires are sexy. apparently they dont make them anymore

No they don't unfortunately, that's why I was scouring the local ads to see if someone had a spare for me.....as it turns out, he's got 2 tires. Now I am going to get 2 more soft 8's and rotate the 2 in at a time.

I seen some Dunlop MT'S today when picking up my basket, I didn't really like them. I was looking at the Dunlops for tires, but after seeing them in person, they are super soft tread....so they would wear pretty fast I think.

What lift are you running? Love the Red with Black!!

Well it's a Frankenstein (not Frankenlift haha) I pieced together. It has now saggy OME front coils 927's Rusty's rear coils (which in my opinion are terrific)
and OME shocks front and rear with 3 conduit nuts per side above the clevis fork. I really need new front coils as these are sagged and getting worse.

Oh and thanks, I just need some more black to offset the red.

You should get the black ARB bumper

You should get the black ARB bumper

I would if it didn't cost $1500 for me to get one here in Canada.

Ow

Exactly!!

Drive across the border and get one and install it and throw some dirt mud and debris on it so it does not look new and just drive back....

Don't worry Dave, I have thought of that already. That's why I didn't get a Franky...cost too much for us Canucks to get one shipped here. It's almost as bad as for us as it is for Tony.

His is somewhat understandable though... it would have to go all the way to Spain....

How long have you been running the coils before they started to sag?

 

[kj924]

The coils I bought were suppose to be new, but they were not new. I don't know how many miles are on them, but they are getting soft. They feel like my old Rusty's coils now. I think I will have to spring for a new set of OME....only $150 for a pair.
