Sam1647545489 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 That actually turned out pretty cool looking but only if you plan on offroading it and putting it to use, otherwise you are just a poser... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excell Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 That actually turned out pretty cool looking but only if you plan on offroading it and putting it to use, otherwise you are just a poser... Pure poser, openly admit it. I built it up for snow duty and the occasional trail, but also because I've always thought it looked a little too minivanish. I wanted the Silent Armor's specifically because they're one of only a few all-season tires that are also snow/severe service rated.

Ramsey Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Now; just murder the wheels, put a black light bar and rack on top, and brush guards and your suv will be a perfect uab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excell Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 lifted<Lowred http://classifieds.trailvoy.com/data/5/large/3QA1.jpg Never really understood lowering a truck or SUV. Why not just buy a car? I like driving over things, it's why I have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinner Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 looks a lot better in person. Like I said Chris put a basket on the top and a row of hella or IPF lights to finish it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bam Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Looks good, how's it ride with the lift? Are the tires noisy or are they really 'silent'? What kind of ground clearance do you have now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted November 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Looks good, how's it ride with the lift? Are the tires noisy or are they really 'silent'? What kind of ground clearance do you have now? The ride is similar to stock, at least on the front. In the rear I'm now running springs from a Z71 Avalanche, which are MUCH stiffer (but awesome for load carrying). Now with JUST the lift on stock tires, it drove worse. The suspension naturally has a little "slop" in it, and with the lift on otherwise stock everything else this slop was magnified significantly. Now with 1.5" wheel spacers and 32's it drives like it used to, evened everything back out. Tires are surprisingly quiet. Only slightly louder than the cheap as shit dealer installed HT-pseudo-AT tires that were on it. It's very mild mannered. Ground clearance, I have no idea. About 3" more than stock, whatever that is.
