nice, what was the actual height diff?

 

[retrofive]

~2 inchs. dunno, just ran a tape on the new ones on the truck compared to old ones off. old ~32" new just shy of 34" @35psi. Not not that much.

Nothin' feels like new rubbers!

Oh my!

Do you notice a greater lack of power now? Time for gears pehaps?

 

[retrofive]

Not really, but really haven't driven anywhere other than around town in stop go traffic. Im headed up to ptown in the next few weeks and we'll see how she rolls in the passes.

And yes, I would love to re-gear one of these days, but pretty low on the list.

Congrats!!! Oh and I'// bring the Chains to to Jams on Sat!

There is not a ton of need to regear with 35's on an 80. Especially the pansy wheeling that you guys got!

That's not quite how I understood the 'conventional wisdom' on that.
You'll have to take up the pansy wheeling with the Jefferson State boys.

I ran 35's and stock gears for a few years. With the 1FZ it wasn't a problem. The only time I wished for lower gearing was rock crawling. For what Ty does, I don't think gears would be all that important or worth the $$. Just my opinion.

 

[Russ in California]

I will differ.

 

[Kief]

Yup, me be a pansie

I suppose the path availlable vs. the path I choose, I choose pansie, I think some rowdy wheelin' can be found around here although it is become less accessible if at all on public lands.

I was just teasing, Kief... Seriously, do you remember how badly my 1/4 panal was caved in from McGrew?

Well Chad.... That's just because you dont know how to drive....



HA HA GOTCHA B!

 

[2ndGenToyotaFan]

Yeah... I have to say I've done McGrew 5-6 times and have never received body damage.... You come down one time and make a mess of things... Just seems too coincidental.... Hehehe

 

[Kief]

dude

No explanation ness, I can take it, seriously I loose sleep over damage. Your rig is used for what you want to do. I love watching real ORV's in action. I got into this hobby and enjoy everyone else having fun and realized I don't like beating up my stuff and confess that I am a pansie.

I hope I didn't sound offended but I was referring to the fact that we are slowly loosing our radical offroad spots..

someday I will have something designed to have lots of fun without regret hopefully I will have some place to use it!
