For correction to previous statements. I by mistake doubled the travel up front. I am using 5125's with 14.3". All the bracketry is from Poly Performance not PCS. Like LCWizard said, 12" is a no brainer and the 15" I got was relatively easy and still one ends up with a extremely safe truck that...

Sorry all, been away traveling for work. And yes I do have a day job :) To answer some questions: Ford shock towers with PCS lower shock mount brakets welded to front axle. This allowed better shock travel and utilized more of the droop available and less stuff. I have 2" front bump stops...

Drove most the day today. The BFG KM2's are not bad at all! I've driven much worse and noisy tires. There is a low rumble to them but noise is not really any concern. They grip very well and tend to make the Aussie work a little more in the rear end. They have a little more spongey feel than my...

Your just replacing a disease for a real bad addiction! WELCOME :)

Nothing Wrong with Stockers :) Works just fine! :cheers:

Well, prolly right. Was always to be an exploration rig anyways, never a rock crawler :) Spent to much $'s to beat the S*#T out of it! But it's my dream :) Anyway, I can go anywhere the BIG DOG'S go, just because I will need to walk :)

Old Grey has New Shoes ! Finally! The BFG KM2's arrived got mounted and balanced by a friend of mine that has a motoring accessories shop, so worked out great! 33x10.50-15's look great have that tall skinny retro look combined with the black stockers :grinpimp: These will act as all around...

Got Tires! :) After much thought and all the s@#t around getting wheels and tires that will work, I decided to stay with stock 60 chomies and have them powder coated black. Bought BFG KM2 31x10.50r 15 for now. Will arrive tomorrow:clap: This will get me up and rolling and buy me time down the...

WOW! Never would have thought I would get a compliment on my rear end on this site:grinpimp: Had to check and make sure I did not log onto another site:hillbilly: Thanks for the compliments all, I think:hhmm: Got the SST today and got my rear end all buttoned up! SST works nice and makes it...

These are a few of the good things about living in this place. I'm about an 1-1/2hr from MAF, SOR, Mark's Offroad etc. Keeps feeding the addiction!

That's good, you guys are great! After tomorrow it will be back up and running :) I have to go on an expedition to find wheels and tires!
