Project-JK lil' Nemo Stage 1 - OME Long Travel Kit & 35" MT/R's
#94
Lift + the MT/R's look great! I've got my OME Long Travel Shocks and components arriving next week and can't wait.
Re the long travel shocks, do you find the front shocks contact the chassis at full flex?
Cheers,

Hey how are the tires (the Wrangler Good Years) compared to the TOYO M/T's.....I need to switch in spring and am going with 35's...I have 33 inch Toyos now, and they are awesome......I also heard they changed the design of that ARB Rear bumper....but I cant find any info on it.

hands down if i were to choose, i would go with toyos. the mt/r's were new and so i wanted to try them out and while i do like them a lot and wouldn't hesitate to get them again, i prefer toyo's. regarding the rear bumper, it essentially looks the same as the old one - just with tow points on the bottom. contact arb and they might be able to send you some pics.
any particular reason(s) on the toyos over the MTR?

yeah, toyo's are E range tires and have bulletproof sidewalls. seriously, i almost question why i bother carrying a spare sometimes as i have NEVER seen a toyo fail due to sidewall damage or otherwise for that matter. also, toyo's come in a 40x15.50/20 which is a size that i love as far as traction goes, both do real well on and off pavement.

Toyo's are badass. Had mine for a couple weeks and got a 3in nail in one, pulled it out at the tire shop and it was barely leaking. They are a rougher ride than my Coopers, but they're a tough ass tire. Load range E(harsher ride bigblue, something you may wanna consider with your back probs).
