Thanks for the honest assessment. Gonna want a solid 3" lift. Was hoping these were more robust than they are. While I'm not looking to go out and beat on my rig unnecessarily, I do want/need suspension (like Icon, King or Fox) that will hold up on the 1-2X/Mo that I'll be hitting SoCal...
What are your thoughts on the capabilities of these coilovers. Are the extra heavy springs necessary of you plan to run a winch bumper (like the Icon) or a winch skid (like the Lobo or RC).
I didn't realize there is a heavier spring rate option?...or do the heavier springs have to purchases separately? I hadn't looked that closely yet, but when I did look at this coil over set, I could only see one part#. Is there a heavier option?
Please post some pics when you complete. Would love to see this combo. I'm interested to see what the 37 x 11.5 Recon look like in general. Saves some weight too.
Absolutely true. Everything here on the left-coast is so over priced at the stealerships. Easily 10K-20K depending on make/model. What gets me is the stealerships that are selling base models with larger wheel/tire packages for $50K+
Dropped the SAS and got scheduled! From the looks of things, it might have been scheduled anyway (based on all the SAS builds). SO Stoked non-the-less...and now I've got an extra $4K for suspension upgrades since I was gonna scrap the SAS bits anyway. Congrats to all.
I wasn't going to go there, BUT...And I've not been one to complain about ANY of this (until now). IF there was something as cool or capable on the market right now, I would probably stray. I'm a 3/21 reservation, 5/21 order maker, as if that means any thing. There are people on this forum...
Removed the SAS from my BL today and went with a mid-package. I'm keeping the hard top! ($2500 be damned). The ADV hard top is around $6K to $7K. I guess I'm not that desperate...yet. Hoping to squeek my build in yr 23'. 🤞🤞
JUST....WOW!! Thanks for posting all about your trip...and the photos?...geez, I have to go back and look at them all AGAIN! Great adventure. Lots of great places to go and good people everywhere! Cheers.
