  1. Gotcha Ok i have another question. I read somewhere online that when you get bigger tires and dont change gears that the odometer is also off. By that i mean its tacking on miles faster then it should be or slower then it should be...is that correct??? I dont fully understand it...
  2. more pics please!!! so you put a 12.5 wide tire on stock wheels...thats interesting who did the install for you? i am assuming your running stock gears correct? should you re-gear since you running a tire thats so much bigger then stock? when im cruizing at 70mph i think i am at 2250-2500rpm. havent gone 70mph in a while tho Even tho your speedo says 70mph...if my calculations are correct...your actually going 84mph. New tire diameter (35")/Old tire diameter (29") x speed (70mph) = corrected speed (84mph) But i cant see going 84mph at 2k. Please correct me if i am wrong...
  3. wow i feel like an idiot now...should have realized the km/h. haha
  4. Do you have a built motor? I find it hard to believe a WD21 can do 130+
  5. Well put. Ill have to remember that next i get trash talked...
  6. How deep of water did you drive it through?
  7. that is correct...negative backspacing pushed the wheel out future from the strut there are countless lift questions all over this forum, so you shouldnt have a problem getting an answer! and to the family
  8. The eyelets on the tops and bottoms were too big so i bought i believe 5/8in diameter copper tubing to press into the shock mounts. Those worked for the tops, but on the bottoms i used garden hose type material because the 5/8 copper tubing didnt fit over the studs on the bottoms. The garden hose type material i used on the bottom, i have no idea what the size was, just found it laying around the garage and it ended up working...
  9. i run with mine unlocked the majority of the time. lock them every once in a while and when on the trail. my factory boots ripped within weeks of installing the lift. I upgraded to Rockford Constant Velocity boots and they've held up so far...(fingers crossed!)
  10. My last set of tires I had was the Geolanders AT/S. Actually still have them on the factory rims. This is definately the way to go. Good all around tires for all seasons, and doesnt affect mpgs. Ill be the 5th to agree to this brand. Currently i have the Goodyear Duratracs and i love them, but i dont drive my pathy everyday...Id get an AT if it was my daily driver
  11. I have almost the same setup as you...minus the CAI (i just have the dropin filter) I am interested to see how you have you exhaust setup too...
  12. i got 16x8 from 4wheelparts.com with -3.75bs and i only rub slightly in reverse full-lock right and left...even tho they took 7 weeks to get...it was worth it. and only cost me $300. I personally like how they stick out a little more then stock...it looks more .... i agree with xplorx4...get 16x8
  13. So the other day while i was at the fair grounds, I saw this lifted TJ. The owner told me about how he bought it and that it was a theft recovery and he got it for $8500. I do believe it was an '05. He said he has $14k in upgrades on it including suspension, wheels, tires, fenders, skids, tire carrier etc. He told me he takes it out to MOAB every so often. This guy had to be in his early 60's too. Some of this seemed far fetched but i just listened. He then asked what i got and i told him an '01 Nissan Pathfinder with a 2in lift, wheels, tires, magnaflow exhaust, k&n, missing link, and a front skid. He then proceeded to tell me i need to buy a Jeep so that i can go to the Badlands in Attica to go offroad...I politely laughed (in my head) and said I was just there this July and my Pathfinder got me where i needed to go. Just thought i would share this story with everybody.
  14. where about in indianapolis are you from? I got a buddy that lives in fishers and my sister lives on the eastside (at least i think lol)

  15. I am running ProComp ES3000's. No complaints here...just had to modify them slightly to mount up.
