So the next question(s) Good and bad points? anything you would want to change to make it better? How much of a bumpstop do you have in the rear? Just wondering Looks good |

as usual, Love your Rig! did you do a cradle drop as well or were the cut cv's enough? and how is the angle on the rear driveline with the adjustable rear arms? |

I think lifting a kj more than 3'' is a headache. At this point i see no bad points. Maybe a bad issue is the fuel consumption. I see 20lt per 100km on the highway. The frame has dropped about 2,5'' and the CV axles have been changed with heavyduty. The cv's angle is quite the same when i had my OME-Skyjackers. |

| Post subject: | Re: 6 inch lift installed |
No that's 11,8 MPG. What about others consumption ??? |

| Post subject: | Re: 6 inch lift installed |
Ah, my math must be off  I get about 17 average on the highway if i keep it between 55 and 65mph, with about 450lbs of bumpers and skids, and 100-150 lbs of cargo in the rear but i'm only about 21 inches overall from flare to center of the wheel |

Depending on what tire I run, as low as 14 and as high as 20 on the highway.... |

I don't know.. could it be the tire on the roof? I've never try without it. |

I'm sure it does have some to do with it do you run 4.10 or 3.73 ? |

| Post subject: | Re: 6 inch lift installed |
I run Motive 4.10 |
|

| Post subject: | Re: 6 inch lift installed |
then it's probably just a combination of the height plus tire on the roof, plus weight, i can't imagine what else it could be, as nice as your rig is, i have to assume you keep it tuned up regularly I do have to ask, how you like the Cooper STT's? I really liked the other tires you had, even tried to import a set but couldn't
