I did the same. It's in the shop right now getting done. Should be done tomorrow. Can't wait to see it.

Perfect! That is exactly what I was hoping for. Most of our gravel roads are washboarded and have tons of little potholes so being able to go down those at a greater rate of speed will be huge for me. The added ground clearance will help in numerous areas as well. Can't wait to see and drive...

I live in MI and even our streets are off-road lol. Tons of potholes etc. On a serious note though what do you guys mean when you say it rides better off road? Will I be able to go fast on 2 tracks that are all rutted and potholed? That would be great for me. I do a ton of bird hunting in...

No actually it has the XREAS. That's why I'm doing to whole setup as opposed to just a lift.

Quick question. I am installing this lift on Monday. 1. What harm is there in taking off the sway bar? I drive tons of highway miles 2. Does that kit come with the sway bar spacers? If not I think I read that you could just use some washers for the spacer? What have others that have used...

So I need to buy the Blistein 5100's? Both front and rear, do I need new springs as well if I am going to do a lift on the vehicle? If so which ones? I keep hearing the FJ Coils. Should any auto repair shop be able to do this?

I realize that but, I can't ever seem to find what I'm looking for when I search. I just checked my shocks and they do appear to be leaking. I just put new tires on it so, I want to get the shocks fixed ASAP. I'm just looking for a round about cost and what products I should put on my car. I...

How much would it cost to do new shocks and a small lift/level? Any recommendations. I don't do any hard core off-roading, I do go off-roading while bird hunting in the U.P. of Michigan but, that's mostly just mud and ruts.

I've got a 2010 LTD with 187,000 miles on it. It travels down the road nicely and corners fine but, when I go down a 2 track or any of our great potholed roads here in MI it sounds a little like something is shaking in the front. I had the rack and pinion changed this spring and had front...

I know someone on here did this and I can't find the thread to save my soul. If someone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated. I have a bud built bumper that I really like and had some "protectors made for the washer tank but, I just don't like how they look so, I haven't put them...

Hi all, I have 2010 Limited with a Bud Built winch bumper and winch along with 270 55 r20 BFG Rugged Terrain tires. I also have 170,000 miles on my car. It rides great and seems fine on the highway and at most times. I do live in Michigan and our roads are the worst. I do seem to have a weird...

I've got a 2010 LE with 165K on it. New brakes, one wheel bearing and 2 sets of tires. It's been a great ride. Planning on 300K if at all possible. I do a ton of bird hunting in the fall and this thing is a beast on two tracks in the U.P. of Michigan. Lots of mud, deep ruts and water, never...

I think that's about what I paid a few years ago.

Will do. Bud called my guy yesterday and told him how to fix it. I will get it in on Tuesday and get it sorted out. If anyone has thought about buying a bumper from Bud I would in a heartbeat. He has been great to deal with and my bodyshop guy said it was real easy to install all the holes...

I've tried searching and can't find exactly what I'm looking for so here are a few questions I have. My bumper is installed and all my lights work but, I know that some aren't working properly. 1. The turn signals are flashing at hyper speed (resistor installed) 2. The Daytime running lights...
