another newbie...
« on: Nov 22, 2010, 10:00:05 PM »
Hey guys...I've lurked around here for a while but finally signed up. I'm 19 and actually going to school for Toyota to be a tech...but Ive got an 84 pickup with a 3" suspension and 2-3" body lift...its got some nearing bald 33's on it. (yes, i know i could fit 37's on it haha) but im planning on building it up just like everyone else, im just on an unemployed college kid budget...so itll be a while. but i was wondering, does anyone know how long marlin will be out of the suspension business? in my year of lurking i have come to find that the suspension kits are pretty much the best. but if its going to be a while i may go RUF and 63's..but im not sure. sorry for the paragraph..just wanted to say hey and hope to be talking to some of yall!


oh, and im building a 22re for my truck!  :greengrin:

I love my 63s and have RUFs lined up to do this winter. Move the steering box as far forward as you can to prevent death wobble; I didn't and it sucks between 30-40 on 37s. In my 84 also.

Got hi-steer?
