Re: Redbird June 20th - 22nd

Maybe not, are the axles big enough and do you have low enough gearing, you have enough lift to keep them from rubbing( lock to lock) there's a lot to look at before you just go out and buy bigger tires and then they don't fit your set up

Re: used jeep parts site

I saw your post on Facebook Todd and checked out there site. I agree it looks to be a good option for parts. Mainly stock but I did see some aftermarket, especially in suspension. They also seem to have a good selection of trannys and transfer cases. I would like to here from someone that's used the...

Re: Fast idle

Like I said before it just doesn't idle completely down until or just as I stop, but it's almost unnotisable. And I cleaned the throttle plate, th...
