Looks like a lot of fun! Your rig is nice... I'm lovin' the 36s. What are your lift specs? Susp/BL? Is that a single case with 4.7s or dual case?

I understand how a trail looks much tamer on camera. It's a lot hairier when you are there in person. I bet this trail was a hoot. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

It's a single case 4.7.
2" BL to allow raising the fuel tank and drive train up 2", with the BudBuilt x-member/skidplate it's almost a flat belly.
I'm guessing ~5" susp lift, I never measured. It's 26" from bottom of frame rail to ground, 2" under legal limit in MD, ask me how I know. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

No,the state trooper that pulled me over couldn't give me a ticket (for that), he was kinda pissed that I was legal after he made a big thing out of measuring.

He suggested I add a lower bar under my rear bumper to keep cars from going under the back if I was rear ended. Isn't really a bad idea for a number of reasons, I may rig up something removeable for the street.

Yes, they're 36" TSL radials.

At this event there were ~15 Toyotas (all types) and ~200 Jeeps, some Sammi's and some buggys. Everyone was cool to wheel with, none of that childish Toys vs Jeeps bullshit from anyone.
