  • Hey Lono100, I just bought my 2001 Sports Trac. I had a question about your tire choice and lift. Did it affect your mpg? I haven't done anything to it but it came with some Nitto Terra grappler tires and what i been told is, the tires are too heavy and makes braking a ***** and how do you like your new shocks?
    wood - im such a moron when it comes to forums. i just noticed the message you left me for the welding manual, and yes, that would be awesome if you could email me a pdf, if the offer still stands, if not, no worries. my email is underground707@gmail.com.

    mounty - im in solano co., just look for vallejo on a bay area map. just message me any time, id be glad to show you some cool trails and parks out here.
    Hey, what's up? So I'm moving up to the Bay Area in 2 or 3 weeks and I'm gonna need someone to go exploring with up there! Just figured I'd say hey since I know you're in the area. When I get up there we'll have to meet up. Where are you in the bay area?
    hey all, im loving my new aussie lockers, they are awesome. my next project was going to be installing a set of off road lights on my roof basket, but now my new next project that im doing some homework on is upgrading my tire size from my current 30"s to 32"s or possibly 33"s. i would really like some 33"s, but if i have to do some major trimming i think im going with some 32"s. already planning my TT/shackle job so i can fit these puppies on and i will also be looking to sell my current tires first. any help or advice is always welcome.
    im ready to buy a set of new shocks, but i cant decide. im not trying to go all out, its just a 2WD, so ive narrowed it down to the monroe sensatracs, procomp es3000, and skyjacker hydro 7000. which one to get?
    hey all, just bought a 2003 SPORT TRAC XLT and loving it. can't wait for the summer. im in the market for some aftermarket shocks. looking for some that ride good on the freeway, with a stiffer ride, but still good enough to hit the trails or go up into the mountains occasionally. any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks.
