That depends on a lot of things. Do you daily drive in the mountains, or mostly flatlands? Do you have the itch to go to 35s eventually? Do you have the Dana 30/Dana 35 axles or Dana 30/Dana 44? If you have the rear Dana 35 axle, you may want to beef that up (look for threads here on the Super 35 upgrade)...

Welcome to the forum! Looks like you're going for the suspension first. Sounds good. However, I'm guessing you have 3.73 gears with that automatic. That combo with 33's will have some lackluster performance/mileage and overdrive may end up useless. You will be less than 1800 rpm at 65 mph...

Thanks for posting in the Wheeling Trip forum. Definitely adds to this story. Looks like 3 very capable rigs and a great time!

Also, check out the build threads on this site. Great stuff. The @NashvilleTJ build thread is a great one for tons and forties!

I like keeping it to a low center of gravity. This is one of my favorite builds. This is from a Petersen's 4Weel and Off-road magazine.

Well that's awesome on your part! Most 19 year olds are still trying to figure out how to wipe their ass let alone work to support your family.

Welcome to the club! Neither did I...

Joke of the year! and imagine that, it's right down the street!

Well... Here it is just about a year later. Nothing has been done. But, a grandkid and two weddings later, it is what it is. I have also added to the pile of parts in the garage. A guy who owns a TJ at the local Cars and Coffee put me in touch with a guy that had a Sway-Loc. Couldn't pass...

Just saw this in my Ralph's/Kroger grocery store. No, I am not makin this up!

Saw this in the neighborhood yesterday. Love it!

Just wait til the politicians figure out that the electric vehicles are not paying any gasoline taxes. The owners of the electric cars are going to get hit with huge registration fees to cover the lost revenue. Should be fun!

In the great words of Porky Pig: " Th th th th that's all folks!"

The sonar buoys were picking up banging on metal about every 30 minutes. If it was them, then it is likely that the sub got stuck. Seems like Stockton Rush is a bit of a Cowboy and may have maneuvered the sub too close (trying to show off) and the currents shoved them in the wrong place...

Yep, I forgot about the tire size. You will need to buy some wide heavy duty straps for those 35s. The uhaul straps on the car dolly won't fit.

Maybe the answer is someplace between flat tow and a trailer. You can cut the weight down by renting a U-Haul tow dolly and still get the surge brakes. They really reduce the load on the tow vehicle. Although, depending on your gears, I would pull the rear driveshaft for a long tow.

This series is from a test of a MK-48 Advanced Capability Torpedo test (circa 1999). It is just not the same as punching holes in ships like all the WW-II movies I grew up on! The torpedo does not actually hit the side of the ship but explodes underneath it and rips it in half.
