Not necessarily true. You can always spend more to get a shock that does multiple things well. The lower priced ones are typically digressive valving.
Because there are better tires available.
What year is your XJ? I used to have one and have definitely been looking for one for my next vehicle.
I’m finishing up a set of KO3’s right now.
It's a 1995, has the country package and it sits on a 6" lift, still have to do the slip yoke eliminator kit on it and eventually regear and bigger tires.
I do like that stance with the ribs J’s and 275’s.
Needs a bumper and a rear locker and then I’ll be really set. Maybe one of these days…
The old girl has a new to her but just broken in engine, tranny, transfer case, emissions, year old suspension all the way around and year old lower control arms. Wife’s uncle got t boned in the winter in his babied 100k 07 to get all the non suspension parts. It had never towed a trailer, gone off road, missed an oil change, or ridden hard and put away wet.
I'm not going to lie, I feel like I usually only get 20k on a set of tires. Doesn't matter the brand/model. But it's hard to say as I don't keep good records going summer to winter sets.
Wait till you tear off the current bumper
That’s the plan. I’ll wait until I inevitably hit a deer.
Weird. I got 45k on my Duratracs and am at 40k on the Toyos. They could run another 5-10k but I don’t want to go through winter on sketchy tires.
You make a decision on what the next set will be?
Either Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT or Cooper ST Maxx.
Dealership told me by end of next week. I confirmed they had my part in hand.
. I think I’m putting those off a month or so until after an overtime check. I need to check with a different tire shop as it seems they may be cheaper than the local Les Schwab
