STFU!!!

This thread isn't about what the hell your Rhino ATV can do. Is the site called rhino-forums.com?

I think not. So unless you have something to say about weather or not he should lift the truck more then STFU.

Mark thats really toward your comments. You start and then everyone else does the same. So STOP! Start your own thread about your rhino if you want.

Jeweler, you truck looks great as it is. Higher than stock definalty, bigger tires, but not overkill. If I had an extended cab 4x4 I would probably run the same setup.

I'm staying where I'm at. Mark we all want to put you in your place, but we all know that the war zone is the only place to do it. I'm ordering a rear locker instead of more lift.

37s?

thats still a thought too, along with 36s..

but once the body lift finally comes off i won't have much room for 37s lol


he obviously doesn't know what i mean when i say rock crawling.. *just* lockers doesn't mean ****.. but enough there.



with all that money you saved you should get a front one, and order me a rear one while your at it

Nah. Rear locker. Ftw. When climbing your wieght transfers to the rear. That's where you need traction the most.

arbs are the ****

but don't run a compressor and all that jazz.

get an air tank and run it directly to that, maybe rig up a few valves... i can draw you a diagram if you want.. cuts out all the wiring, fuses, relays and switches.. just my .02 if i ever run an air locker. I'll be running it off my power tank though.


everyone's gonna tell you that you can't do it that way but you can..

Well I'm running a custom set-up from 4wheels concepts that will be a air compressor, tank, and aux air hose for on board air. (so I can adjust my air prssure on my tires too.
