Looking to buy Fox coilover take-offs from a 4 door Wildtrak. Can pickup anywhere near Seattle, Vancouver BC, Portland or Spokane. Willing to pay shipping as well.
Message me with what you have.
Thanks!

Great write-up. Looking forward to reading about the rest of the trip. Love the scenery out there. Going to be taking notes as my wife and I plan on driving down to Moab sometime in the fall.
Bought our Bronco off the lot and it came with the slide out tailgate. I would have never ordered it with one and didn't think we would ever use it. But it is actually very useful and we use it all the time. It's just handy to have a flat surface to set things on when out on the trail. Whether...
Our Bronco with some Grenadier demo vehicles at DirtFish:
My wife got to drive one through their offroad course and said it felt heavier and more substantial than the Bronco. She really liked the seating position and view out of the large winshield and windows. oh and the switches, lots of...
1. Are spacers absolutely necessary when getting the larger tire? If I'm keeping the stock steelies I mean......
Nope, no spacers required for going to the Toyo OC AT3 tires on stock wheels. Crash bars don't need removed either. You may get a tiny amount of rub on your sway bar - see photos...
small update- I did a test fit with the .375" (10mm) spacers and the wheel studs on the front hubs are not long enough to allow for proper lug nut engagement. I was only able to get about 3.5 turns of the lug nuts on the front and about 5 on the rear. I know that some are running the .375"...
Does this happen frequently where you live? Sounds awful.
We have enough law enforcement here that I don't need to live in constant fear of the scenario you just described.
Beautiful shots. I really love the scenery in Moab, especially Canyonlands. Your Bronco looks great too; The steel wheels with spacers and sas flares is such a unique and functional look.

I find this very useful for planning. I usually look for roads with the "High Clearance Vehicle" designator then use a 3d mapping tool like www.earth.google.com to look for interesting things...
Thanks, others before me took the real leap of faith, I just jumped after them and reported my experience back :)
Nope, no extension needed for the 3rd brake light and I didn't reinforce the tailgate since the tire and wheel weight is similar to the sasquatch setup. I did trim 10mm off the...
