This is such a cool group. I never believed it when people would say that jeep is a way of life. Believing it now!!!! Hopefully getting my 245/75/16 at ko knockoffs monday. For the grand total of $0!!!! Looking at the Teraflex kit that goes on top of the strut and give 2 inches just to tie me over. Can't wait to play in the sand.

one more update. there is a 4x4 store in grand rapids called cascade off road they have dune flags for $23 and 2 piece flags for $27

may have to stop there on the way up... and i think you may catch some flack for buying an OTT lift kit...

stumpjumper_09 · **Posted:** Fri Mar 27, 2009 1:20 am

yeah but to clear free tires i'm really not too worried about it.

KJ kyle · **Posted:** Fri Mar 27, 2009 2:05 am

thats very true... but whats that kit gonna run you? i think daystar is the cheapest, and is recommended over other spacer lifts.

getting one for $200. I don't like the idea of putting more stress on my stock springs. that is why i'm going with this kit. I figure that $200 is cheap for a set of tires. The lift is basically free

if you do the OTT, I would make sure that I installed front Teraflex bumpstops the very same day, it will hold you for a while, just know that sooner or later :wink:
