    How best to use $2,000

    Alright, I have finally been able to come up with some prices for upgrades to my Montero Sport (all include labor as I am not a mechanically inclined soul). My thoughts go along these lines: The front ARB would do wonders for making up some of the weaknesses of IFS and would include on...

    Not really 4x4, but important:!!! ACTION ALERT! State OHV Law will hurt all of us!

    Great job those who have gotten involved and are going to meet with the committee. Best way to get the results we want. From work with various other issues, I will offer a couple pieces of advice (I know what people think of unsolicitied advice, but....) 1) You can get better results in...

    Not really 4x4, but important:!!! ACTION ALERT! State OHV Law will hurt all of us!

    opposing view..... Alright, not a geat bill and I must admit some of it seems odd (lack of dollar value on reporting accidents), but is there anything wrong with holding adults responsible for damage done by youth on their machines? NO. Is it unreasonable to expect parents to be close...

    Strike Ravine

    Sorry to be slow in follow-up. I think it was page 2 of the local/state news section (sorry I have don't still have it). Talked about the legal issues with the people that bought land from SITLA and want to close the section that crosses their land. Basically said the temporary easement...

    lift laws/ mud flap law how do you get around it?

    Superfly makes the key point. Most the rules are there for a reason. If we think they are pointless, work to change them. Thus the difference between a trail rig and a daily driver has to be made somewhere, and it usaully for the sake of others.

    Rhino Rough Terrain

    Just to look at it, it seems odd they have the seating so high. Seems like would increase roll overs a lot.

    bfg vs. goodyear

    I can hardly tell a difference noise wise over the street tread Geolanders I replaced and the ride is almost as smooth as it was before the change. Too soon to comment on wear. Sounds to me like you need to get out and meet more people (or not take the company line on what tire they want...

    89' Subararri

    Obviously not as big of a tire, but we used to run 185/85r13 snow tires to wheel an 84 Sub. With the adjustable suspension as the only "lift" still had almost 12" ground clearance. Cheap and effective.

    bfg vs. goodyear

    One other thought is where are going to wheel and in what weather? When the UOOC did a snowy/icey run in the Sheep Rock Mountains in November, the rigs with mud treads of any brand had a much harder go than those with an all-terrian tread. BFG A/Ts.

    lift laws/ mud flap law how do you get around it?

    Tend to agree here. The fact that alot of great off-roading close doesn't make a trail rig any safer on the highway. I understand the frustration with the move and being fine in another state. I would say make the modest changes needed to be legal and safe, and then enjoy playing!

    2007 Wrangler revealed

    Montero Sport Upgrades

    All good points. For sure want selectable. Now I just need any of the shops out there I have tried to contact to return my messages so I get some prices and work down!

    Montero Sport Upgrades

    an additional question As I sit around work thinking (too slow to be doing actual work), I got thinking of another question to toss around. With IFS (assuming a SAS will be too many $$$), if I was to lock (selectable) either front or rear, not both, which makes the most sense to do? Front...

    About the best place I know of the check with is Red Cliffs outside Moab. They have a museum on movies and t.v. shows made in Utah.
