Do these look like factory control arms ?

 

[MidnightRebel07]

Yes that's a factory right hand two piece control arm, looks like a you have factory shocks and sway bar endlinks.

 

[Trackerforsport]

Yep going to get a new set of shocks in a week was looking at Monroe Monro-matic gas charged

Installed my hitch. It sits exactly where I wanted it to.

Hey Fellows I need some advice

I just bought an 2001 Sport Trac and I want to put a lift on it. I do more road driving then I do muddin' as I live in the city (Toronto, Canada) but I do go north of the city for Muddin' and hunting and I'd like to have some height on the truck. What's a good life Suspension or Body that won't kill me on the road?

I had a Jeep wrangler with a 6 in lift and 33's years ago and it was **** on the highway.

As well I see people listing 3" BL but adding (TT) what is TT and do I need it?

Thanks Guys,

Whitney. :exp:

My understanding is TT= Torsion Twist, it's adjusting torsion bolts, to lift the front end. I have lifted my front end 1.5" by turning the adjuster bolt in. In some cases new longer bolts are required, as the stock bolts aren't long enough. Zabtek is who most everybody gets their longer bolts from.

You will see AAL as well, that is Add a leaf for the rear.

Breeze I love your light and hitch setup

 

[The Breeze]

Thanks Tracker. I am considering buying a 12" double stack led light bar from a friend to mount on the underside of my light bar. Just have to find a way to keep people from ripping it off.

 

[BigGreenV10]

2" TT and 3" BL on 33" tires about as big as you can go on a budget lift any more starts to cost some serious dough.

 

[The Breeze]

Thats looking real good BigGreen.

 

[Trackerforsport]

Yea breeze that's a major factor

 

[Trackerforsport]

Tried my hand an edited a pic I snapped yesterday

 

[BigGreenV10]

Breeze there are a few options I found them when I ordered my new lights understand as they can be expensive.

Pics of my lights and have no idea why the second pic is sideways as it is not on computer and can't get it to flip right. Nevermind thank you photobucket

 

[The Breeze]

What kind of light output do those have? Do you have any night shots with and without them on? Also did you go with the flood or spot beams?

 

[BigGreenV10]

Spot beam
50W driving light and two factory fog lights

18W LED light and two factory fog lights

pic from front passenger side is the 18W LED and driverside the driving light

Day pics lights off

I don't have one with both just the 18W but they are a clear white color and can see great with em.

 

[The Breeze]

Thanks! Since I have 4 HID lights that are more of a flood then I might go with a spot led bar. That should work out nice.

 

[BigGreenV10]

I am really impressed with the light output.

Thinking of making a snorkel like his

[MidnightRebel07]

Yeah, after the close call two weeks ago on a trail run I'm gonna be building one also. I ended up taking out making air filter after the second river crossing (abit deeper, over the hood) then the first I used a t shirt as a filter for the last 4 miles of the trail to get out to the road. Then it was a 8 mile drive to a parts start for a new MAF, air filter and alot of luck. Since then I replaced the belt tensioner, idler pulley and completely disassembled the throttle body, IAC to clean them as well as the whole air intake. I'll post pictures later. I've been trying to upload videos to photobucket but they won't upload completely.
