nice truck man. that clunk that your talking about in the front end, is it when you turn your steering left and right ? i have same set up with 5" lift and when i turn side to side i get a loud clunk from what i can see it looks like the springs reseating no really sure tho. what do you think of those s Amarda extreme shocks? are they real soft or do they hold the weight of the truck and what length are they at?

As the truck sits now on 35s having a pose rear end maxxed out the shocks up and down so i may need longer shocks now i think i will have to cut the rear guards a bit more but there s not much more room until i hit the fuel filler plenty of room on the other side were the door meets the guard tho

OME 2" Lift quote
yeah i agree with that. i run no caster bushes or plates on a 2" dobson lift and it drives better than factory should only need to buy shocks springs i think.

I bought this 1990 diesel in awesome condition 6 years ago, when i bought it it sat at 2" with 33 s since then it has many changes and different looks. this is what it looked like the first thing a lift from superior 4" springs superior lowers and uppers superior super flex arm and boxs 6" braided brake lines drop out cones retainers next it was time for a quarter chop and the $1500 kamar rear bar modded to suit new 34" trexis intercos. 32" wranglers 34" intercos 38" TSL. also did a cut and shut and flip on some 7"x15 MQ rims which gave me an extra 8" of width poor wheel bearings grabbed a cheesy bar and bought a set of yuri cv s money well spent 5 years and going strong and a snake tie rod rock rod next was time to put the lift in and measure up lenghts for shocks got the longest procomps i could get at the time then tried some 38s tsl then cut and made guards to suits put the long arm kit in and that has changed the truck whent some 35" creppys change them creppys for something more road user friendly which i regret because creppys off road are hard to beat set up two boss compressors into a tank for endless air,i got sick of two flat batterys and blowing air lines so converted to belt driven compressor which is amazing as good as a servo since then i have had the truck engineered by Chris Argent. the diffs have been rebuilt with new nissan gen 4.6 gears and front diff braced up by Roger at Townsville off road centre he whacked the long arm kit in as well and a great job he did would recommend him to any one for quality work man ship, thanks Roger. the truck runs on the new kevler wranglers 35" bought those real expensive bumps stops you know the yellow ones lol put a tuff dog adjustable steering stablelizer on the front tie/panhard rod and one on the drag link installed a dual motion for the battery's.
