Post what do you think?

Okay im new to this site...but what do you think? I have a 99runner 2wd and this is what im thinking: SAW coilovers 3" in front, OME coils HD or comfort dont know yet 2.75"-2.5", OME shocks (what are tundra valved?), on 285-75-16 Wrangler MTR's, on my stock 16" rims. What am I missing? but i will then save to get a locker.

welcome.

front sounds good.

rear is trouble. youre gonna get prob 4" of lift with the 891s since youre 2WD, i recommend 890s. then get the OME N86 or N86C shocks.

tundra valved referrs to SAWs, but i think they changed this recently?

tires/wheels sound good too.

call up MIKE at www.xtremeoff-road.com , hes got the goods

What is the major difference between the comfort shocks and the firm shocks what circumstances would you need each in?....i dont want to go all out rock crawler or anything but i want to take it off roading...and be able to hold my ground...i dont have any extra weight like custom bumpers or anything...so which shocks would be better for my situation?

youll get the same articulation from either shock. the difference would be how you like your ride quality. the comfort shocks will be softer and the STD shocks will be firmer, but the STD is still comfortable (sorry for being confusing).

basically, get comfort if you want a stiffer than stock ride, but love a soft ride at same time.

at same time, i would recommend comfort shocks if you get the 890 coils, combo works great for me.

The Health Department told me that STD's are never comfortable
