83 Jdm as flop build, ditched the 88

[gnarrkill]

jdm coilovers! hah just do rears and 63's just dont have 6 leafs like i have hah

[mattlosch]

yeah i think thats a good idea... just dont want to lose all my flex

[83 Crawler]

id say lowering it 2 inches or so would be legit.

[mattlosch]

smaller shackles and see what happens?

[83 Crawler]

how long are your shakels now?

[mattlosch]

trail gear 6''

[axled89]

hey matt look into doing a 4link rear and 3link front with the panhard.  that might be great for you to do.  fit your own ride height and still flex the crap out of it.   think about it.

[83 Crawler]

get some 4in ones

[mattlosch]

get some 4in ones

thats the plan...

dont wanna 4link.. plan on drivin it alot this summer

[83 Crawler]

thats what i have.

[axled89]

O!!!  i see.

[mattlosch]

gonna try the 4inch cause thats the cheapest route to test then if that doesnt work diff springs..

[toyotanner]

I'm gonna try and make it to MCR this year cause i missed last year and had a blast 2 years ago...
if you get rid of that truck you will regret it in the long run for sure...
if you want i'll let you tow my truck around if you think its not getting used enough haha

[mattlosch]

hahaha it doesnt get used enough.. drive it maybe 100 miles a month.. just sits in the shop haha MCR would be sick.. im down for sure!!

[83 Crawler]

what do you daily drive?

[mattlosch]

1995 nissan altima panty dropper hhahaha just a cheap little gas car....

[toyotanner]

do you plan on getting bigger tires? if you are i would wait til you get new tires before you decide to start lowering it...

[83 Crawler]

why dont you daily drive the dodge? to much money?

[toyotanner]

i would drive the diesel daily and have my truck on a trailer behind it 7 days a week lol

[toyotanner]

it would make it no problem 2 years ago i towed to MCR with a 93 chevy 2wd tbi 350. and it did fine on the flats but SUCKED on hills

[gnarrkill]

for sure! im not gonna lie i miss the truck lol it was so roomy compared to my truck now just dont miss the tint.

matt lets get some ladies and do a senic night trip to the towers soon! lol

[mattlosch]

hahaha scenic night trip sounds good!!!

i dont daily the dodge cause i dont wanna rack up miles... plus it just sits in the shop clean most the time

yes im getting new tires after some other things get done.. probably 39.5 bias irok's im thinkin.... not sure yet though...

[mattlosch]

my build list before rubicon....

36'' or 39.5'' irok bias.
bead locks
normal bobbed bed
fuel cell
partial exo/ roll cage to tie singer, sliders and cab cage together
marlin ultimate duals (in the works )
driveline tech balanced long travel drive lines
and a new color ( between red, desert sandy color, blue again, or flat white)

are irok's going to be the right tire for me?? i will drive it this summer quiet a bit but not daily status, just around town... would a km2 or MTR be better??

[toyotanner]

i didn't have any problems with my iroks when i still drove it on the road.... but if you drive it to often you can watch the money fly off your tires

[85camoyota]

how much flex you get out of it? is that allpro bed? dude the all pro bed looks sick with an exo cage

[mattlosch]

i didn't have any problems with my iroks when i still drove it on the road.... but if you drive it to often you can watch the money fly off your tires

yeah i mean i wont be driving it much.. just around town and stuff... nowhere far... 36's or 39.5's?

it flex's like crazy.... and yes its a allpro bed.. was on it when i bought it... i hate it haha will be getting a bobbed bed soon....

[toyotanner]

might as well go 39.5's and never look back haha...
