haha ok, just wanted to get an idea of whos in so far. but im sure the list will be different by the time we actualy go

i might do a half day for this trip (its only 40 mns from home) so i might go saturday morning adn head home in the after noon (2-4 or so)

come on Goblin, grab a hamer and some duct tape and some superglue and get that thing fixed and bring it out to pismo! who all is going to pizmo anyway?

i think its funny to see the old pictures where one of the only ones with a solid axle in front haha

oh yeah, it was $300 for them. he just made em to the superlift spec's. and he said if i ever break one he'll just make me another

i want to this weekend, last time i drove the navajo it was back firing and making like a "put put" type of thing on acceration. might just take it like that anyway haha

guys, i think im going to be OK!! :) just checked ONE thing off the list (you all know the lilst never actualy ends) :rolleyes:

hmmm i wanna go! im gonna try, i think i might have engine problems though

im counting it

your talking about this lil drawing--> \-/? thats spossed to be the alignment with way to much camber (the tires riding on the outside of the tread. looking at the front of the truck in that little thing). at first i thought you meant the tire on my actual car, but those are fine

32x11.5 should be perfect with a 4" lift.

haha i know how to weld, i just don't have a welder ($$$$$$)! adn im not the greatest at fabrication, but that would defenetly change if i had a welder :D with the amount of air time my truvk has had, it sould be snapped in half by now (in pismo, its gonna be off the chain, youl see how i...

im getting some built by Mcneil. same type of ones they use on there yellow explorer, and im pretty sure that explorer has been through alot! thanks though, i appreciate it. i'll have to find out more about your friend, cause i alwasy have fabrication needing to be done

bfg m/ts is my vote. if your gonna be doing only baja and you have millons of dollars, then go with the baja's (the tire almost every desert racer has) i like my mickey thompsons's alot, and they do REALLY good on the street for some reason.

jumping is not good, its great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i made my own drop brackets for my bumpstops, but they still don't work and my wheel just bottums out on the inner wheel well. so i guess my wheel well is my bumpstop haha

they're 33x12.5 on a 8" rim as far as suspension, you can do either f-150 coil seats or 2" spacer or 1.5" springs in the front. any more then about 1.5-2 inches and then you have to start doing things like drop brackets for the beams and radius arms, or else your alignment will be way out \-/...

oh yeah, and for a 4x4 ford truck, i would say a 4 cyl 5spd ranger reg cab. i hear people get 25 mpg with those all the time. and from what i've researched when i was looking for one, people say they get about 19 with a bii

umm not trying to harsh on ford or anything, but don't they have there problems too? i mena yeah i don't really like jeeps, but fords are known for haveing problems and breaking down too. all cars have there problems and all cars brake and suck like that. i think xj's are cool (but not for 3500$...

i could show a pic of where on of mine cracked, but my my pumkin didn't really get bashed up to much since i didn't have them on there that long. i prolly would have destroyed my pumkin with the way i drive haha (note the avatar pic)

oh yeah, was your truck perfectly level to begin with?

i would say yes the bottum pair is skyjacker. the middle pair i don't know. i've had really old superlift ones and they look like the first pair, but i think most of the cheap brackets prety much all look like that

the taller one has 33's and a 4" lift, the shorter one (my dd) has 31's and 1.5" springs in front (stock rear) sorry i don't have any pictures of it without fender flares :/

stupid lift has already replaced both of my axle drop brackets for free, and im not even the first owner, i got the whole kit off this site for 290$. honestly, i don't want any more superlift r.a.'s!!!!! the one thats broken now had a crack a long time ago and we reinforced on both sides and it...

in some cases, 2wd coils are longer then 4wd coils. i've heard you can try to lift your 4x4 by puting 2x4 coils in it, although it might not align right. (this i heard from talking to john at autofab)

yup, it got us about three miles on a dirt trail till' we got to the big bear lake. yeah i had the "tie down mod" broke it, then got the "broken tie down tied to a broken tow strap" mod

32's with a five inch lift should be fine. i've got 33's and a 4" lift, but i like to keep it low though.

ummmm.... your tuck looks really good to me, but then again i live in so cal like prs said haha. i love the nose up look :)

what? i just posted it tbars. so.... anyone have any spare r/a's lying around? :D

whatever you end up doing, just take ALOT of pictures! :cool:

gotta get this fixed before the dunes!!!!! this is how we limped it out to the city

in the end, you'll be happiest with the v8, but i voted for swapping in somehting out of the norm, just cause it would be interesting :)

i like what tbars has to say. and i would say go with the skyjacker kit too.

well my navajo is down. took it to big bear and snapped the almighty superlift radius arm (after already being reinforced) and the engine was acking a fool. so i don't know wbout pismo for me anymore, just depends if i can get it back together before then. (money money money!) haha. but if i...

haha, ok thanks mounty :)

we're in! but you v8 guys gotta be nice to us v6ers ok

haha i agree. im gonna go without you guys if you don't decide haha
