They're Rancho 4" lift leafs. I have NO complaints, I've beat on them for a long time. I think I've already found a used pair.

No warning, but.............2 weeks earlier I hit a tree root (growing out of a hillside) at about 20 mph. Careless, NOT paying attention on a trail I've run 100 times. The front of the truck must have bounced 3 feet airborn then crashed back down so hard that the lower heater outlet on the heater core snappd off and the master cylinder housing cracked! I remember bragging about how the suspension held up to the violet hit.......guess NOT!

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

Hey guys out west mainly in the Spokane, Wa area. I am trying to find out more info on a Toyota I bought off some folks in Ishpeming Michigan they were storing it for a friend while he was away. At one point and time I saw a 4 sale sign in it so I stopped and made an offer they called their friend and he said sold. I bought it knowing it has a 283 th350/toyota t-case and toyota axles and thats it I need more info.... I know the guy did some wheeling with it cause I found some pic's of it being wheeled I tried to scan them but did not work.

Feel free to spread this around I need the info and I know some one knows something.

Re: 4X4 Action Pix

In my experiences with greenies/ treehuggers I would take this pic off because it will give them more ammo to fight to get trails closed!
