When Do We Get To Know What This Secret Project Is

i'm curious too........

kermit

This is one of the few times I am going to curse the cc. I went to fill up on gas the other day, and upon stepping out of the truck, as always, I closed the door. This time, however, it closed on my right index finger! (I am currently typing with 9 fingers.) I had to re-open the door to get my finge...

nice looking trucks guys

I'm going to guess 31X10.50??????
just a guess

that sounds about right.... my 30x9.5s have had no major rubbing issues, and i have no lift or cut-outs

kermit

more black and less shine on the wheels and a more rugged tire makes a huge difference in appearance!

kermit

in my opinion, GM is loosing their off-road reputation in the SUV area...

SUVs have turned into the 'new minivan' and away from their off-road roots

K5 Blazer > S-10 Blazer > Trailblazer ???

that means it has an available V8

haha... more like Fridgeline. i mean its big and boxy like a fridge anyway i don't like it at all! buh! copied basic design from Avalanche. looks like a car w/o a trunk lid. not sure how much serious off-roading it could actually handle esp w/ small tires and big body. basically, its a grocery gette...

kermit

Looks like a ZR-crew. haha... there should be a RPO type code for the Marvelous Mystery Lift so that we could have our own decals like the ZR2, ZR5, or Z71... Make it the ZR4 (4 door) or ZRC (Crew), ore maybe a ZR-crew decal would look nice.... but i digress, wamason, ride looks awesome! I can't wa...

kermit

excellent tire. they don't lie when they say 60k mile tire! i've been running them for at least 50k and have almost 1/4" of tread left.

kermit

i've thought about doing the same thing, only my truck is green.... black and green? i guess it would be similar to the blue one... they aren't scratches, they're scars, each with a different story to tell :D that's what i say anyway :lol: for the black truck, i'd prolly just try to cover it and sea...

kermit

at least Ford has their problem circled. now, if only they'd do something about it

kermit

great story... just goes to show, there's almost nothing these trucks can't handle!

kermit

$1.95-ish for 87 here in SC

kermit

I'm curious about that too. It'd be like getting 25 or so in the crew. That'd be sweet!

kermit

front looks like a Tracker. looks weird w/o the center bar through the lights... too much like an old Ranger..

kermit

does anyone actually follow Consumer Reports?

exactly why I asked you guys what was the best way to go.

Thanks for the help y'all!

kermit

roger that... thinkin kinda the same thing. but it will cost almost twice as much as HJ's lift to go 6" SL

kermit

rock crawlers, BFG 33's, new gears, and free gas would be nice

kermit

last i heard... concept to be debuted at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show in January... production models ready to be sold 2007 ... just a rumor though

kermit

thanks... you're the best

kermit

Now that I know where I'm going with the lift, on to the tires/wheels...
I know that HJ's lift combination uses 33x9.5 tires, but how much wider can I go if I buy new wheels? How much backspacing would I need?

kermit

maybe i should start slow... 2" BL, springs, shocks, tbar... get a feel for the new look and handle of the truck and decide if i really need more from there, if so... then a SL

that seems most practical, i guess -- at least it simplifies things

kermit

*sigh*
Have there been improvements made on SL kits that help with extending its life? How bad are the long term effects of a SL?

I'm headed toward a SL, but if y'all can convince me otherwise, that a BL is indeed the better way to go, then that's what I'll do.

kermit

sorry if i got a little spirited there...

kermit

Sorry, no disrespect. This truck has been through more than most trucks w/ twice its years. It's a Chevy and its built like a rock. Plain and simple, it's truck and it's meant to be used and abused! The 30's that i have just don't cut it... so... back to my original question... Suspension Lift? or B...

kermit

so....

1 - save a little $
2 - Marvelous Mystery Lift
3 - enjoy yourself for a while
4 - save more $
5 - forget the SL and go straight to SFA

i've already learned a lot!

kermit

how much for SFA conversion and SL?

kermit

thanks for the feedback. still have a little time to think about it while save... but i think the BL w/ the cut out fenders will do just fine for a start... 33's sound nice! tires make the difference in mud, that's for sure. and the BFGs seem to be the best all around tire, might go to the mud terra...

i live on the Broad River in SC and most of the mud the s10 sees is on hunting/fishing trips. Haven't been back to one of my favorite spots on the river to put the boat in since last spring b/c it almost got stuck. I was surprised at how well it handled the mud. the thing that bothers me most is how...

currently own a 2003 s-10 cc w/ 30 x 9.5 BFG A/T KO tires, but the truck is seriously lacking in the ground clearance department. Thinking about a 6" SL from Superlift, but am reconsidering a 2" BL and the cut out fenders... just looking for some feedback, personal experience maybe, and if your sati...
