Well I will start the story by thanking Dale(gibby) for selling me a set of his spare IROKS and Joe(JR) for selling me a set of extra rims that he had. I started yesturday afternoon mounting them in my garage by hand.... I was so exited to see what they were going to look like I installled 2 of them in the pouring rain. Today after church I decided to see how they are going to ride on the street, I had to much air in them, 25psi, I called dale and asked what pressure he runs and he told me about a neat trick with chalk. final road pressure is 13psi. It actually handles better than the 36' Radials I had on there.
I am not worring yet on breaking things, because the Iroks weigh less than my old Boggers and only 3lbs heavier than the 36' Radials
I then decided to try to flex a little bit and had to set up a little redneck ramp.
I only had to cut a little bit of slider in front of the rear tires for good clearance. I order a new set of brake lines today and am getting ready to start on some tube work. Here are some pics, I hope it holds together next weekend at ELBE....
What do you think?? Not to bad for spring-over with stock fj-55 springs and stock fj-40 springs in the front. The tires are 39.5
