I dont think that first set of tires you had were 31s..the goodyear radials..think those only come in 235/75s..I like the new tires though. Good looking rig.

Mapp torch and a small sledge makes quick work of it. They are pressed in so all you gotta do is heat it up and beat on it.Originally Posted by gregb091
How'd you get those damn stock torx bolts out of the sway bar link brackets? haha.. seems like they're welded in, and even the BFH wasn't doing it for me.

Yea your right that was a typo, i meant 30x9.5x15 not 31's. Thats my bad for the typo i meant to change it after i put it up but i forgot about it. My mom was getting me them for my bday gift and she got the wrong size tire, thats why i traded them in to get my 31'sOriginally Posted by Xj88

Im thinking about going up another 1-2in in lift by coil spacers and shackles. Has anyone used jks adjustable coil spring spacers? Ive looked at them for a while and long like good quality. Also what would be a good shackle for a relatively good price?

Pretty much! I'm just going with a 3"... I feel it's a practical size lift for a daily driver. Besides, it would cost twice as much to go 4.5". Originally Posted by pastrickland901

Nice shots!

Good choice man, its a great lift for a dd. It also drives great. Im trying to save up my money for a 4.5-5.5 in lift and 33's but its gonna take a long time to save up for it hahaOriginally Posted by Rage

Well i decided to finally post the pictures of the damage of my rear bumper when i slid of a big rock last week and yesterday i backed up against a tree to get through a tight section of trail, It scratched it up pretty good and has a few small dents but theyre hard to see in the pics. Atleast this gives me a reason to get a after market rear bumper haha gotta love trail damage 
Well me and couple of my wheeling buddies decided to start a 4x4 club here locally to do trails rides here in the mountains. Weve got a TJ on 37's, a tacomma on 31's, my xj on 31's, and a couple stockers. Were gonna try to make it down to uwharrie atleast once a year. So if anyones in the north western part of nc and want to go wheeling with us let me know!!
I dont know if anyones following this, but today i flushed out my coolant system and it was FILTHY!! I guess its where i took it mudding when i was younger, but thankfully its clean now. I have a buddy that has some spidertrax wheel spacers for really cheap but idk if they would be tough on the axles or not. Does anyone know if it would be worth buying them, and would it not put too much strain on the axle shafts, and other parts??

Still followin'...
Good to hear you flushed your coolant system. It's a pretty simple job, and can perform wonders. It's amazing people don't do it more often.
As far as the spacers go, I have no knowledge. However, I'll be keeping up to see the response from a more experienced member here as I might be interested in spacers myself...
