Stronger Suspension

The onlything that you would have to worry about in a 2wd front end is the bearings. But hey if they go out its like what 35$? What kind of wheeling are you planning on doing? Mud? Trails? Any water? Jumping?

you could try getting some B rated bars, they are suppost to be a little bit stiffer so that should help. also if your going to lift more, a spindle lift might help because ive heard they are a little stronger than the stock ones. and some bilstein 7100's couldnt hurt either.
 






Actually the stiffer the Tbar the more likely you are to break it because it is more likely to snap than bend.

But like I said, the strength of the Tbars is not a concern.
 






Well, boominXplorer, since its winter and it rains occasionaly I have been playing in the water and mud. But I usually stick to dirt and dust.

I put her to the test today! I took my X up this very tuff trail (in some parts), a trail that 4x4's have trouble with. I made it all the way to the top, and through the rough section my X performed beautifuly. We got right to the to the top with no problems. My buddies 4x4 Sierra barly made it, but thats only cause he chose the worst line possible.

I think the damp ground helped me "hook-up" and brought me to victory, I was all smiles today. I was the only 2WD to make it to the top in out pack!

Thanks again guys for all your feedback! I think I am going to leave it the way it is, she proved herself to me today.
