Well I'm pretty sure mine weren't MT/R's...not really sure what they were...could've been the low end tires.....ida know

gairbear

One more thing....with a single lid tool box...do you have to pull both handles to open it...or can you just pull one...

gairbear

I've got a screw in the front right tire....should I go plub or inside patch....I do a little light offroading...which is stronger and will hold up the longest...

gairbear

I'm sorry to hear you have goodyear's I had nothing but bad experiences with those tires...BFG's are the way to go IMO

gairbear

thanks hj

gairbear

gairbear

I'm looking for an over the rail, aluminum, double lid tool box....Is anyone running one? ...if so , what size is it and where can I find one.

gairbear

huh, thnks man

gairbear

So what can I do with an HPPIII that the dealer can't do for me??

gairbear

sweet...Thanks HJ.

gairbear

Just wondering what the stock tire size is In INCHES....if anyone with stock tires is willing to measure for me......trying to figure out approx how much bigger than stock my 30"'s really are...for MPH and mileage reasons.

Thanks
Gair

gairbear

yeah the BL is the cheapest way to get bigger tires and therefor more clearance. Oh and about the tire width...the higher you go the wider you should be...So if your not planning on going too high your tire wishes should be doable.

gairbear

welcome

gairbear

thanks

gairbear

Sweet...thanks....Oh and one thing...WHat exactly are the "rockers" you guys are refering to???

gairbear

Are HJ's mystery lift directions still around here anywhere?

gairbear

I have a suzuki gz250 right now...I'm just startin' out....My next bike is gonna be a yamaha v-star.
Yeah and gettin' a 'busa...I'm thinkin'...maybe...you have a death wish of some sort lurking in your subconcious. mho

gairbear

well my name's Gary....but My mom started the whole Gairbear thing and my friends got wind of it and it just kinda stuck..

gairbear

what'd ya get for it man??? if ya don't mind me asking that is.

gairbear

Welcome....I'm running 31's with my 2" bl (not sure if I've had a t-bar crank...I bought it this way)

CALM DOWN COFFEE

gairbear

Looks great.

gairbear

no doubt bro...that's like apples to oranges.

gairbear

I'd go 31's man

gairbear

Mod. Lift Spindles?

gairbear

I don't have a doubt that the Fiberglass version would support the tire....I have one and the wife and kids and I sit and jump on it often...LOL. But the only concern I would have would be the lift arms...I think you'd have to get some much larger/beefier arms on there

gairbear

I agree with BAD.....TOTALLY worth it.

gairbear

Hey...whatever works for ya bro.

Welcome to the site.

Oh and BTW...IMHO CC's Rock @%%

gairbear

I think jeggers has the right idea....now...if only we could all hit the lotto.

gairbear

LOL...you guys rock.

gairbear

The more I come here the more I figure out tha the guy at the local offroad/tire shop knows absolutely Nothing about offroading or modifications. so I just wanna say....Thanks for the site!!!!

Gair

gairbear

and maybe some flares to help with the rubbing..
or you could just hack off you fender where it rubbs and just paint it like I did....(flares can be expensive)

gairbear

LOL...nah...I think I'll stick w/ the stink.

gairbear

That sucks....can anything be done about that??

gairbear

OK...so the SL is gonna run about $1700...Plus install.$$$$.plus ball joints and steering joints $$$$$ So...I'm guessing a little under $3K total,,,ish what's a SAS gonna run me....all said and done,,with someone else doing it...(I just don't have the know-how or the equipment) what are we talkin' h...

gairbear

gairbear

OK...after I drive a bit...when I park...my truck stinks...smells like burnt rubber. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what it is. Any input would help alot.

Thanks
Gair

gairbear

thanks for the advice bro.

anything else? anyone?

gairbear

hmmm....I'm thinking maybe just do the 6" SL.

thanks guys

gairbear

well right now just a bit of mud...But that's because of lack of lift and lack of places to go///I'm going to be moving back home to TX soon where there are quite a bit more places to go....I'd like to be able to get through that rougher terrain...though..honestly..I don't know for sure how rough it...

gairbear

OK...I'm kinda trying to decide what to do here. Should I,
A: get a 6" SL
or
B: Go SFA

I need to know how cost involved each is...and if I go SL, exactly how bad is the Ball joint prob....and .....j....jse.s.er...help!!

LOL

Thanks
Gair

gairbear

SO exactly how much should you air down???

gairbear

OK....what are BUBS flares...and where would I find them?? And Is the ball joint problem Really that bad???

Thanks for your input.

Gair

gairbear

Hey steve..do you have any good pics of your light bar??? I'd love to see.

Gair

Split topic -HJ

gairbear

I'm thinking of getting lifted....I have a 2" bl....and I'm running 31x10.5's right now...if I get the SL 6" will I be able to run33x12.5's...on rims with...uh...I'm not sure how much backspacing....and my fenders are already "modified" a bit...and I'm not against cutting more off. If Anybody knows ...

gairbear
