BTW how often do you use all them gears I thought 26" was pretty good for 39's, what does yours sit at? My front springs are pretty close to being flat right now so I dont know how much lower I could go. With the wheel spacers and offset of the wheels I'm right around 80" wide on the outer most lug of the tires, feels ok. I did Airplane hill, waterfall and 7-up around the middle of last year on wore out 36's (~20% left) and no wheel spacers it felt pretty crazy in the cab but everyone was saying it looked fine from outside. I think it was on 7-up i got a little sideways and my clinometer was spinning circles. I use low/low quite a bit. I see alot of people do the baja thing through more dificult spots, I'm just not into that. I'd rather go slow in the rough stuff and then switch back too high when between difficult terrain. |

26 thats in inches right lol..... is that at your front cross-member ? i think im at 24.5 with stock front spring hanger, +1.5" shackles and 33's lol.... prob best pic i got but they arnt that arched...its an ruf setup with two rear packs mixed in, im thinking about taking a leaf or two out and cutting the fenders but i havent wheeled it with the bigger tires yet...  i had 37's on it and had no problems but im only going to run 36s....... i have seen yotas on 39s up there and if there full bodied (like the front of yours) they all seem to look like there tippy... I would love to see the double in action, i have been trying to figure out if i want duals or just a 4.7 setup... im torn lol... i would be happy with the same low range i have just with the 36's and not the 33's lol.... |

I'm measuring 26" to the bottom of my frame under the doors. I've had my clinometer to past 30ยบ and it felt pretty wicked in the cab. No rollover though. I measured again last night, I'm at about 78" wide and 78" to the top of the cab. So, I'm about as stable as a box with suspension!  I'm really wishing I would have put 4.7's in the rear case! It's plenty slow the way it is, but i still get spots where i have to bump the throttle to make it move. I'm assuming thats the auto tranny making that happen. It would be nice if i could just let off the brake and have it keep rolling. Your springs are just like mine except I'm running only 4 leaves and a 2" drop hanger. front shackles are 5.5" center-center. I'll let you know when were going to browns camp next. you can meet us up there! |
