    5 Procomp Xtreme M/Ts 33x12.5x15 with 5 Blackrock 15x8 wheels

    Going back to stock wheels and tires for gas mileage and comfort, only reason for selling. The tires have 80 percent tread and pretty much even on all five. A couple of the wheels have some rock rash but other than that they look good, no bends or anything like that. New everything was around...

    I know I was leaning towards the 80, but I'm going to look at a 100 next week. I'm in no rush though it's going to come down to the cleanest 80, 100 or Grand Cherokee I find that I feel comfortable with.

    I do like fj60s, I don't have any experience with them but I just can't imagine one having better manners than my jeep.

    rubicon to landcruiser

    i think a 100 series is going to be pushing my budget, so as of now unless i come across a clean one for the right price that's out of the question. i'm more interested in a solid axel because i want to hit some of the harder trails as i'm heading west and then down into central america, and i...

    rubicon to landcruiser

    i'll most likely have 3 people with me on the trip(s). i've already decided to sell the tj, if i can hardly tolerate it as a dd around town i know i won't be able to across the country. when i bought it i said heck with creature comforts who needs those but after awhile it gets to you. its...

    hmm yeah i didnt realize the 105s weren't imported, i do want a solid axel up front so that eliminates the 100 even though i like their looks a bit more...but i think i'm pretty set on an 80 series from my research anyways. i just don't think i can tolerate the tj over a long distance, i love...

    Yeah I think I'd rather eaten broken glass too haha. I have been looking on ih8mud, there is tons of info over there. I'm looking to get a stock 80 though so I can do the mods I want to. What kind of gas mileage do the 80s LCs get? I can't imagine its much worse than my 12 or so mpg.

    I've never driven a stock or less than 4 in lift wrangler so I don't know whether lowering it and putting 31s on it would improve the ride quality, that's my main concern because just driving it as a daily is rattling my spine out of line....I imagine a LC drives like a Cadillac compared to it...

    I already have a tent set up for the jeep while camping, blow up mattress and 2 person tent that fits on the roof rack. For the land cruiser I would most likely get a roof tent and no rack and have everything else I need stored inside.

    I could always buy a hard top for the tj, but that doesn't make up for the lack of space. My main concern is the comfort of driving it over long distances could take some of my enjoyment from the trip. all of the 80s I find for sale have well over 100k miles, is it dangerous to buy one with...

    I have a 2004 Wrangler Rubicon, and I want to get some opinions from you guys. I want to know if the TJ could be a decent vehicle dependent expedition vehicle. The reason I didn't post this in the jeep section is I know most of them will say yes or that they use theirs for that purpose, but I'm...
