smm3's UZJ100 build

likin the blinglessness!

what tires did you order?

The Cooper S/T is a good lookin' tire! A little more agressive than the BFG but still an AT. Chris has them in stock.

I went with a Cooper tire. Not the S/T though. I believe this tire is relatively new. Its the Cooper Zeon LTZ. It's hybrid sport truck/AT tire. I would say it is very similar to the Nitto TG. I got the 285/60/18 size. It should be here Thursday according to Chris.

NEW TIRES!!

Chris got my new kicks in yesterday and I went to have them put on. I decided to go with the Cooper Zeon LTZ 285/60/18. I found the Tundra wheels on Ebay for a great price. I really like how much better the truck looks with the new wheels and tires.

Chris, thanks for your help.

Very, very nice looking combo! I love the looks of those wheels and tires.

REALLY COOL! Those wheels look like they could have come on it...........likewise, that's a great looking tread pattern on the tires......may have to look at a set of those myself.......

David, let me know if you ditch the recaps. I may want them for my nephew's ride.

I do like the wheels much more than the OEM 16s. To me, its an updated look. Doesn't make my truck look 10 years old. Will report about the tires after a few thousand miles. They are rougher than the A/S though.

that looks good! the tread pattern on those tires are similar to my Mickey Thompson ATZs. I think you will be happy with em.

Dang that's sweet.

Thanks Lenny. I am pleased. Now I need to find out if the tires really work!! ha

Thanks for the biz!
Those were the first LTZ we have sold. I thought they looked great on the truck.

I finally got the Bilsteins and OME 865s put on thanks to Nolen, Lenny and Jeff supervising. I must say that I am very happy with the ride being more firm. There is no dive when braking and most of the body roll in turns is gone.


Maybe this should be a build thread now...

Martin...great looking hunered! Where do you live because I work right next to where your truck is parked at Joint Force Headquarters.

You will see my green 40 when it gets a little warmer.

[wct49]

Thanks!! I live on lyncrest. It's the first house that faces lyncrest. You can see that grass parking lot from my front yard.

I did finally get it washed. It's been washed 2 times now. Mud still comes out from under it when using the pressure washer.

Headers are going on this weekend. Will take pics of the install and try to do a write up here. Have my fingers crossed that it goes fairly smoothly....

 

[euclid]

Headers are going on this month....

Fixed.

Fixed.
