    Have you actually seen 5.71's break???

    Hey guys, I am looking for actual evidence and not just "I hear they are not very good". Are 5.71's for a Toyota as weak as you hear in rumors? Read the write up titled "ARE 571 GEARS REALLY THAT WEAK? "on this web page. http://www.gearinstalls.com/index.htm Does this guy have a...

    I am putting a set of RockStomper Bead Locks with 35" MTR's on my Toyota. Has anyone had any luck balancing beadlocks? How did you do it? I was going to put several ounces of BB's in the wheel before I clamp everything down. Any input would be appreciated.

    Flowmaster with RE Long Arm Suspension?

    I really like the sound of the 40 Series Flowmaster so thats why I wanted to put one on my Jeep. I guess the best approach is to take some measurements. Hopefully I have room.

    Flowmaster with RE Long Arm Suspension?

    I have a 98 TJ 4.0L. I would like to run a 40 series Flowmaster muffler but I have a Rubicon Express 5.5" Long arm suspension lift. I have heard there may be clearance issues with this combination. Is this true? I currently run a cherry bomb and I can not stand the sound of it. I also...
