What would you guys do to fit 34's?

Oh and it's going to be slow and noisy as hell with those tires sticking out!

Especially with a 3FE

.....oh what was that? tires? Um? Sorry......(Gilda Radner -RIP) "Nevermind"

A sweet, sweet woman....


Roseanne Roseannadanna, a character played by Gilda Radner. Roseanne Roseannadanna was a caricature of consumer reporters and news commentators who would air out their self-righteous indignation over some faulty product or outrage in the world. Ms. Roseannadanna gave knee jerk reactions to things she heard that upset her. The problem was that she was hard of hearing. For instance, she might complain about police efforts to stop the spread of cracked coke cans. "Sure, cracked coke cans can be a nuisance. They can spray everywhere, get on your clothes and make your fingers sticky when you drink them. But why should the police be involved? They have better things to do than to be searching coke machines."

Chevy Chase would let her go on for a while, and finally interrupt her. It would take a while because she would have worked herself into a frenzy. When he finally got her attention, he would correct her. "No, Mrs. Roseannadanna, that's 'crack cocaine,' not 'cracked coke cans.'"

Roseanne would pause and you would see the embarrassment come over her face. Pursing her lips, she would say, "Oh."

That was enough. The audience would explode in laughter over that one little word. All her embarrassment and the hilarity of the scene would be expressed in that simple utterance. Then, Gilda gave the punch line another punch by adding with a forced smile, "Nevermind."

What I want you to remember is how all her embarrassment was conveyed in that little word, "Oh." It's not really a word, is it? It is more an utterance; more emotion than meaning.

So fender modification is in order, custom rims, and some kind of horsepower mods. Anything else I would need to do?

Don’t forget a FJ80

Here is a pic of a 35" MT on the front with only 850 (medium) coils and Mr gasket spacer. We flexed it and only at full flex got rubbing.

I also put 33's on my 15 year old 91 suspension and wheeled the crap out of it with only minor rubbing. then I bought the lift a few weeks later. That's the 33'" AT on the back.

Nice pic Eric. Not often I see that colour scheme. Lets see another with 4 MT's on the black wheels.

Nice ride there Land, makes me think that J's and Mr. Gaskets will be plenty for the lift, no need for the Slee spacers. Now to look at power mods for the LC, how many horses do you guys think I will need to bring it back to stock feel? Don't want any more than that, maybe 20-30 horses?

I will not lie, I have a led foot, and despartely need 4.88 gears for my under powered 3FE.
That's a buddy's 35". I wish it were mine. We only put that one tire on to see the clearance, but maybe one day I'll get there. And that's him driving my truck while I took the pic.
A side note: Different sized tires while unlocked did not bind the difs or xfer case while driving for 20 minutes.
Go here for more pics of black steelies with Thornbirds though...
