Fabtech Coilovers?

I'm about to purchase a 6' fabtech lift for my truck. I decided to go with the bigger lift as my "x-mas" present haha. Well anyways i'm having a hard time deciding whether or not to get the dirtlogic coilovers. I will mainly be using my truck for street and going hunting during the winter(gravel roads, washed out roads, muddy). If the ride is the same as just the 3' revtek that i have right now i wont mind, but i dont want it to get stiffer. The basic system installed at my local 4x4 shop is right around 2k. For the coilovers it's another 1000 for them. I'm leaning more towards the basic kit and use the 1k for a nice 2 way remote start alarm and maybe some nice rock sliders. Tell me what you think?

And btw..has anyone found a place in the US that sells front and rear gears. If you run 35's i would like to regear; i still want to be able to drive on the interstate.

Dont steal my ideas


Tires: 35x12.50R20 Mud Grapplers

Thanks,

I say you go with the Basic kit.

You don't need all that BS.

$2k installed sounds good to me!

Here it's $2600 installed plus tax and $4000 for the Dirt Logic kit.

LOL

As long as you got 6x139.7 or 6 on 5.5 for the bolt pattern.

108mm center bore diameter or something larger than 4.25".

If you got a -25 to -19 offset or 4.25 to 4.5" of backspacing, you are good.

Let me know.

There is a bolt pattern that is 6x139 and 6 on 5".

I doubt they sent you the wrong ones.

-25mm sticks out further = 4.25" of backspacing.

-19mm sticks out less = 4.5" of backspacing.

You can get 4.10s from the 4cyls although you would also need the carrier or a front ARB locker. Your other option is contacting All-Pro, I believe I read on TTORA that they have 4.56s and 4.88s that should be available soon in a master kit.

Here I just bumped up the thread for you; http://www.tacomaterritory.com/forum...146#post636146
