Lucky, I have yet to find a 99+ intake at the JY. I picked up some injectors right after I got it, but they are shorter, and maybe too short to work.

Well it was a few days ago but i put on my new tires 35x12.50r15 Federal mud terrains. So far i love em. They cean out better than all my other tires. Ive ran km2, toyo mt, kevlar and interco (all of em) and these grab harder in all terrains and clean out even the sticky clay. Air them down and they become absolute monsters offroad! Best part is the price! They have a slight hop but are very tollerable and using a new silica compound (not equal)for balancing helped a ton, no more vibration. I dont like using stick on or clip on weights

The km2 were ok on road but sucked *** in the mud. And the truxxus were awsome in sand n snow but turned to slicks in the mud. The on road manners are not a big deal for me. I ran swampers from the time i got my license 17 years ago til about 5 years ago when the radial mud tires started being good offroad. My federals are smooth and quiet up to 65-70 then get a decent vibe til 80-85. i run em at 25psi also

When i first mounted the federals i spun them on a dsp9000 balancer and the worst one wanted a total of 7.25 ounces, so not to bad for a lug happy 35 imho.
