Or you can hunt around pirate4x4 and buy someones already overbuilt tank of a truck for 4000 and go beat the crap out of it.
So what does everyone say...4x4 run this winter, snow run to the rubicon and back out (say..ice house road, camp and head back the next day?)

Hence the reason for my parts that I'll Install this weekend. Also I was dumb enough to leave my front end that high when I was pullin the sled, shoulda lowered It down to keep my front end from lookin like that. but yeah my wheel are looking in different directions haha, Kinda bummed I didn't get to drag that sled the whole way lol next time I'll be better prepaired.
Thanks Jody, How did that trunk clean up for you? I think I still have spiders In my truck from having that thing sit In my back seat for 2 weeks haha
The guy that did the work on my truck said with my setup It should run Mid to high 12's with the 35's on it, His truck has twins on It and has 100 more hp then mine and runs Mid to low 11's all day long lol, you havent lived till you feel a 7,000lb truck launch at 30psi and still break all 4 tires loose

i have the same issues with my kit. when going WOT and in 4 wheel drive, the front end lifts or unweighs and when the wheel droop, my kit looks like each tire is turning in at 45 degrees inwards...
it doesn't do sh*t

Sold my taco and picked up a 6 spd full time 4wd FJ. The thing is a tank! Getting Icon lift soon and 33" tires. Also armoring up with sliders, underbody skids and steel bumpers. Can't wait to go wheeling in this truck.
