New Tube and Coilovers!

Unread post by redlightrubi »

Well, new Tube for me and "a" new coilover for TJ! Since lifting my new"ish" rubi like my old '01 Chero was not an option... I have decided to make space for bigger meats and running a nice, low rig this time around. Throwing TNT/TREKS Tube fenders/rocker/full corners. Got primer on the corners/rock rails and sending the front tube fenders out for paint this week. Also got one of TJ's Coilovers mounted today. Well, he did, I just got in the way mostly... :D

JP the black one is mine that I bought about 3 months ago, the silver one is TJ's that he has had a little while longer.... Mine is going to be a DD/Trail Rig while his is a little more serious than that. All I have added to the black one so far is a JKS 1.25" BL and a 1" MML so I can use a belly up, and rewired the lockers to "use them any time" status. The Kilby Bumpers and Warn M8000 all came on her from the previous owner. Bought her w/ 40,000 miles and supposedly the top was only down 3-4 times since '04. I've had it down that many times since I bought her already. Underneath is completely clean, no scratches, dents, or dings so I'm assuming the prev. owner was telling the truth that she never saw the woods.

How was the test fit on the TNT fenders? The first set they sent me was horrible and the second didn't fit great either.
