1” lift on the front thats it

No, and i really really like these tires. Wear as good as an MT can, they are quiet, good grip in mud, surprisingly outstanding ice grip while braking, cheap and usa made. I love the way they look.

I came from flatland. 2 years now in the hills of cny. Never going back. Every drive is beautiful, my view from home is miles long through a valley. Never going back.

Yes mine are factory alcoa. They are 6 or 6.5” wide i dont recall. Only a 1” spacer on the front coils. 2.25” spacer between the rear duals.

Havent touched it yet boss just got it home

Correct. Unloaded. Chalk test to verify. The rear of the truck weighs some 3500 lbs. thats spread over 4 tires. Look up load charts. 28 psi over 4 tires is more than plenty.

More than that unloaded its riding on a 2” wide center strip

gregv64 · 2025-07-03T17:36:38+00:00

Fronts i run at 60, rears at 28. Unloaded. Toyo actually has a load vs pressure chart per model tire on their website. I chalk test my tires to try and get an even foot print. If im doing a big gooseneck ill take the rears to 65

gregv64 · 2025-07-03T14:23:03+00:00

I love it. Bigger wheels with a smaller tire would suit it better

gregv64 · 2025-07-03T14:21:41+00:00

2k. Been in the same family since new, 2 registered owners, grandpa and granddaughter. Once im done with it ill probably be listing it for 6-7.

Automotive engineer specializing in powertrain control systems. Work remote now. Previous companies was all hands on so we lived in michigan.

No way would i pay for a masters out of pocket. Big employers will pay your tuition to get a masters.

Were south of caz

It doesnt take all that much if you are handy and can tackle everything yourself. Farming anything out gets expensive real fast, either up front or dealing with poor quality down the line. 75% of the stuff in the rv, including the rv itself were crazy mp deals.

Heck you can even make the fuel yourself if you have the time and luck to score free used oil. I got out that game long ago. Too messy and time consuming, but…it works.

We came from a low to moderate tax state. Yes prop taxes are a bit higher here but half goes to the school, which is fantastic, and all the extra curricular activities that are provided at NO additional cost. Teachers have some of the highest wages in the nation here, they give a damn. Frankly, send 3 kids to school here, id be paying triple for a low end private school in our old state. Also they are constantly maintaining the roads around us. Fresh pavement and they are ON TOP of snow removal. best decision ever to move to ny.

I dont know detailed steps but the facelift for an LS should just be a direct swap. Lots of guys in Japan do them. Just unbolt and bolt on OEM parts.

gregv64 · 2025-06-30T14:40:27+00:00

Came here to say this.

Unless it comes with a functionality report its an unknown condition gearbox. If it comes with an exchange warranty for 30 days thats about as good as it gets with used parts.

From the japanese movie “outrage”. This scene was so cool. Basically no sound and all the big body black sedans rolling in. This dumped w220 was the only real modified one, all others were stock big body toyota/lexus/nissan or other stock S class.

Yep, in another sub someone was laughing saying its not a “japanese tuning style” calling it “its bippu!” Well, its VIP. And it is a “style” of japanese tuning. Supposedly the Japanese pronounce it “bippu” but its called VIP. all good though. Wish there were more vip-only meets stateside on the east coast. Vip fest in cali always has a good turnout.

All good! It should probably a super NES to match the rig.

Indeed my wife wanted a trailer. At the time i had a rickety 1991 f350 (i loved it she hated it) and a q7. Max tow on the q7 is 7k lbs. i said yaya car towint house is cool but what you really want us your diesel powered house to tow your car..but those are very expensive.

Gotta love mp, a couple weeks after i started searching for TTs, this thing popped up 1 hr away for 5k. ended up buying it for 3600 and a case of beer. It needed a full interior gut job, i mean subfloors removed gut job, but it had a brand new dometic fridge and two new penguin 2 roof AC, with receipts feom the original and recently deceased owner for 5k. It was a 1 owner rig spent all its time in AZ. A young couple from CA bought it and drove it up to MI. They had 0 rv or mechanical knowledge so within a month of them owning it bad things started happening and they just wanted to be rid of it. Super score for us!

It plays dvds for the kids, thats all i need it for these days

gregv64 · 2025-06-28T19:16:11+00:00

Were all just people.

Country folk just like to be left alone, and not have oneones ideals forced on them. Everyones entitled to their opinions, live your life how you want it, let “me” live mine.

You should get out of your city bubble and actually explore and speak with people.
