EZ gangsta, i dont know, it looks like the weekend before spring break is the best time, i got polish them up before they go on, i just got my new light force lights mounted on the bush bar to see if they fit and DAM they are bright. so now time for the tear down and re paint the bush bar, and step bars. Who else are we going to be rolling with?

Throw on some 20 spinners on it and sell it to a black guy.

Just cranked the torsion bars in the front like 2 inches, and put this rubber thing in the rear springs that give it an extra inch. They are 31’s…for now.

yea it looked like you had a little more clearance than me.

For my 3 inch in the back what i am doing is using the front springs outa a 98 jeep grand cherokee V8 and then cutting the pig tails off them and they fit like they are ment to be there (you can get them for 50 bucks from a wrecker) Thanks to the smart boys at [4x4parts.com](http://4x4parts.com)

another question when you cranked the bars are they on the bumpstops, and how did the alignment go for ya?

On sunday, monday and if i am slow Tuesday of the 28th and 29th i will be doing CV boots, lift, wiring for my aux lights and a bunch of other stuff so if anyone wants to stop by and say hi your welcome to come out. i live near 23Ave and 111th street

yea its got decent clearnce but without LSD its kinda shitty for off road because its pretty much only got 1 wheel drive on each axle.

I cranked the torsion bars like 3 years ago so i dont remember ho much more lift i could have got out of them. When you crank the torsion bars the top of the tires will tilt out a little more and should cause more wear on the outside should of the tire but i havent really noticed to much more wear.

Are your cv boots already ripped? Because if they are i would recommend using the 4x4 because you will screw up the cv joints. I know i let mine go to long and even after i replaced the boots i started getting a vibration from the front end after 60 kph. If you need cv boot pliers i have a pair that you could borrow.

What kind of lift are you getting… Trailmaster?

Yea i am glad to still have a relitivly tight lsd, but draggin the brakes off road is almost as good as an lsd as long as you are not going fast (this is quite pointless if you have rear drums not as big of a diff)

The day after the lift is going on i am taking it to have an alignment done cause i cant afford to drop a set of michelin’s. this lift is a t bar crank and springs outa a jeep as i said before.

As for cv boots, i did the outer ones in the summer cause they were cracked badly, but the good guys at part source in south common were unable to finde me a set of inners. The inners did not have cracks anyways so i just cleaned them out put new grease in there and used zip ties to keep them on (yea thats right zip ties) :lol:
