Tuff Turf Talk

Glad to see you finally made it here Turf. Now you need an avatar like Dave K's except youll be holding a fender flare instead of a drag link.

i think i need a certain number of psots before im allowed to have an avatar, i went looking for one, but didnt see how to do it. Course, i could just be retarded,.

Welcome Turf!! Those Rockware arms used to belong to me too. They are beefy and will serve you well! How are those tires doing?

Really well. Super quiet compared to the old thornbirds. Theyre the only tire I've ever wheeled in so as far as I'm concerned they're great in the dirt too. Now Jake, I just need you to convince Brian to sell you his current suspension so I can get your rovertym 3" springs. I'm already eyeballing lots of stuff I want that's still on other people's trucks. So everyone get some upgrades; I want your leftovers.

LOL I have RTE 2" springs and 1" spacers... You should just keep looking for a set of spacers. They go for cheap when they come up on the forums.

Ahhhhhh, then you're of no use to me. I have like a 2.5" lift but I did it the ghetto way with Toyota springs. I'm puttin 1" spacers up front to level out my lift but eventually I'll want real,good,hd springs and I Think 3" is the money height. I'll be patient though. I've got time

you are welcome for your avatar by the way.... i spoke to brett. he don't know nuffin.. that bumper will fit you truck just fine. its the d1 bumper going on the d2 that you need to make cuts.

Turf i see youre right in philly, im just over the bridge in Cherry Hill.

Turf if you can find a set of OME 763 and 764 theyll give you just a little better then 3" lift. I had them on my green truck but sorry Corie called dibs on them lol.



That was with 245/75/16 tires

Are you doing the pine barrons run in january? IM thinking about running a day trip and tryng to bring my wife, see if i can sell her on the concept of four wheeling being awesome. If you ever need space or help wrenching im literally right over the bridge too. Im at about 11th and spring garden. But my dad is maybe 20 minutes from me and i use his place for air tools and thats where i keep my ramps and such. Open invitiation.


Ed, thanks for the floppy fender flare photo. (thats was even difficult to write). I look forward to gluing them on and ripping them off many more times. I may hold off on re-applying them until i get my hands on a bumper as, if i have to trim them, i'd rather do it off the truck than on it. But i want them to meet the bumper just right, so better to do it once.

Finally brian, thats exactly what i want, yeah, those springs would be just the right height, but as im in no rush, i'd rather do the radius arms and swivel balls first and work up to it. BTW, i have NO idea how corie would get in and out of a truck that tall on the reg. I've seen her sit in your truck for hours just because getting in and out of it was too much of a pain in the ass

She never minded it when it was that high before, but yeah she hates it now. I might have to make a stirup out of chain or something for her on the green truck.

Yeah I know but thats about the only thing I can think of thats easy and wont get ripped off on the trails. I usually try to park next to a rock or something so its not a 5 foot drop.

What you NEED to do is get that bitch on air bags, im not talking about range rover air bags i mean like septa bus air bags or slammed impala airbags. Imagine, you could crusie up to corie with your bumper like eight feet off the ground and then "pppfpfpfpffffpfpffffffpfffffffffffffffffffffff" that f'er is sitting on the frame rails and she has to DUCK to get into the truck. Thats sick

Find me a set of 26" gold spinners and its a done deal

Shoot, you forget, i live in philadelphia. Thats a done deal. 26's? thats old skool playa. kids been ridin on them since '92.
