  1. Okay so to clearify- I can get essentially any strut/shock and still get springs that add maybe .5"-2" of lift and the struts/shocks will be able to safely extend to accomidate the extra distance? Another question has arisen...would the factory roof racks off of a WD21 fit on my R50? I don't have any roof racks but in the gutter on the roof it looks like I have 3 tab like things on either side of the roof...could the WD21 racks easily fit on these? IV
  2. That is nice.....except for the automatic. I died inside a little ...kinda wish I had gotten one of these instead of the R50...but passenger comfort does cross my mind from time to time...must be nice having a frame though
  3. hmm its had this problem since mid summer...cant remmeber past that. Who knows? Just as long as it doesnt do the death wobble thing and like flip me into a ditch or an 18 wheeler
  4. Alright cool, thanks for all the input, ?'s are answered.
  5. Alrighty then, I think the time may be coming up at some point to replace my struts, as I measured and it seems like the front driver side sags 1/4" lower passenger side and I would like to have a stiffer ride. However, I don't think I want to lift (just yet). From what i've interpreted, all the links for r50 struts and everything are how to lift. I looked at 4x4parts.com and it seems liek the stuff they have are just lifted struts and all (not to mention $$$). If I get the oem spec replacements from say, autozone, will it be significantly stiffer? Or did I miss something in the links and everything dealing with where to get stiffer, factory height struts/shocks? Would it be possible to put theseon and not have to mod anything? Like would factory spec rear shocks be able to safely handle the 1/2" lift? Next thing: I notice that when I push on the accelorator there is a little bit of tail wag..is this the beginning of the death roll stuff? I did look at it seems like the fix for that is some bushings, but I looked on autozone and didn't see anything dealing with bushings for the rear under suspension stuff. Did the R50 change over to something else? IV
  6. why'd you pass over the first one?
  7. I stared at my seats for a few and it looks like the passenger and driver seats are interchangeable? Like the chushions themselves? So is it possible to find a passenger seat in the j/y and take it off the mounting brackets and swap the cushions? Or can you only replace everything? Seems like the easiest thing to do is get one that has a good bottom cushion and swap it. THe back part isnt sagging as bad...
  8. 1998 XE Has 135kish...cant wait till im pushing 200k like some of you guys...I always take pride when I learn of a car or truck that has at least 200k on it and still runs like a top
  9. Northern Virginiaaaaaaaaaaa the 7-0-3
  10. why not an R50? You get the wonders of a unibody (gag) and its still purdy sexayy
  11. it is old...but its still funny as ........ "if I were to be hit head on, chances are I would not care, because I'd probably be dead."
  12. Alas as I thought the junkyard is the place for me...and thats not a bad thing
  13. I did try search, didn't get anything. Is there a list somewhere or do people know what makes and model seats can bolt right into the front drivers seat area on a 98 r50? Driver seat is sagging and i;m considering just replacing the whole thing but I don't have access to a welder. Do WD21/D21 bucket seats bolt in w/out modification? Thanks IV
  14. Just finished it. &^%*ing epic.
  15. so much for going to bed and studying. Bookmarked!
  16. wompwompwompppp looks good though
  17. Good to know! now to put this topic back on track....I hope to order a missing link in the next month or two just pending if I have the extra money, as it is a good deal.
