Are you from East Alton, IL Route 3 Tacoma728? If not, why would you put that as your location?

CHECK OUT MY NEW PICS! Wood River IL is now my home!

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2251398/2


I actually live there now and have a new job in Woodriver, IL. I rather like the 270 bypass, its much better than the 275 around cincinnati. Too many wrecks on those bridges though. I like East St.Louis. O'Fallon is nice there on US 50, several good places to eat.

Back to the real topic:

The rough country kit is good from what i hear, but I think the Pro Comp would be the better choice. The diffs on the pickups are a lot stronger than the Tacomas so a good size tire, such as a 36-38" tire can be acommodated for street use and also very light wheeling. I'm still timid about the CV axles on my 91. 35s would be max for me.

To understand how to stop an online stalker you first have to understand what motivates a stalker. Stalking is a matter one on person trying to control another. Controlling you brings them pleasure. If they can force you to react this gives them even greater pleasure. If you scream, rant and rave they win. If you panic. They win. If you make empty threats to them, they win. If you argue with a stalker, they win. If you run around telling all your friends and the stalker hears about it, the stalker wins.


Online stalkers count on the fact that they can hide their identities, or that they can do things in ways that can't be traced to them, and that they can essentially go after anyone they want, without fear of retribution, because the victims are like sheep that run and hide rather than fighting back.




You're a coward Tacoma728.

That size isn't made in that tire. The only tire that BFG makes in a 35x13.50 is the Krawler.

i have no idea what you are talking about illtoy. I was under the impression that this thread was about a 4" suspension and 3" bodylift, not you parading around calling me names and accusing me of absurd things. Please stop.

Onto the topic at hand;

I think this combination would be a good setup.

There is no difference between online stalkers and offline stalkers. They are people who thrive on hurting and abusing others. They are disgusting slime that deserve to spend their lives in jail. My guess is that most of the online stalkers are people who do not have the courage to do this in real life and face to face. They gain their courage by the fact they can use the anonymity of the web. They are like bullies, except they do not have the courage to stand up and fight. And so, most of them, despite that they can pretend to be intimidating, are nothing but chickens hiding behind their computer screens.

Please stop. I have asked you plenty of times to just stop this madness. I don't know why you can't get along with me on this forum. Why are you slandering me? Let me quote you, "thrive on hurting and abusing others...." What? I really have no idea what you are talking about.
I have done nothing except respond to four wheel drive associated topics. You come in here and accuse me, slander me like you are some hellbent politician trying to get a bill passed. Please tell me what is bothering you so greatly that requires you to continue this madness. Everybody has bad days, are you venting on me?

yes, you missed some rambling on about a guy being mad at the world. I tried telling him several times to stop bothering me, but he continues.

This was a great thread until he ruined it. YOu do have a nice setup. One of the best in my opinion.

How would that help with tree stumps? You *may* be able to clear them with a SAS, but unlikely. You don't gain that much clearance, and lose clearance under the diff.

I was looking on the Interco website, and, unless I missed something, I don't think they make a 36x13.50 Super Swamper. Bummer. I do like the Iroks, though.

A Rough Country lift is the exact same thing as a Superlift just with cheaper coatings. When I ordered my lift direct from Rough Country last year after a month or so delay they actually shipped me a Superlift kit instead of the RC for the same price. If you look at the pics of the two kits you'll see they're the same just the RC has paint on the parts instead of the zinc coatings.

The way I see it, I painted everything black anyway so I wouldn't have gotten anything at all out of spending $300 more for the Superlift kit.

As far as bracket lifts go I like the Superlift/RC lifts the best with Skyjacker next. I don't care for the Procomps only because they use tabs to drop the stock crossmember instead of using full length drop brackets like the two I mentioned. However, the Procomp Stage 2 lift adds re-enforcement arms to the drop brackets that should more than make up for the tabs. I'd recommend it first but it's twice the price of a Rough Country...

4" susp, and 3 inch body is MORE than enough for that tire. You could run 37's without much issue. Why waste money on BJ spacers?

Should be fine. You'd be better off with 4" bs, but if you've got the 3.75, it should be fine. Worse case, you have to flatten the pinchweld.
