rustys 4.5 lift, procomp 32's, rustys front and rear dif covers and belly pan, aj rock rails, custom rear bumper, logans front bumper bunch more but you get the idea that was taken up at rausch creek off road park nice place

 

Good looking XJ. Yeah Rausch Creek is a fun park to hit up.

How do you like the Rusty's lift? Is it full rear springs, blocks, aal?
Reason for asking is I've heard that their stuff is really stiff. I'm looking to possibly lifting my Cherocar here in the next couple of weeks. Just don't know who to go through yet.

 

full leaf and it is very stiff if i did it again i would have done the 3 inch leaf and the 1.5 shackle

 

the rustys kit flexs really well i found it the best bang for the buck when i was looking for a kit

 

Started the yota axle swap today. More pics to come.

 

zack, I love it. What did you end up doing with the other one?

 

I hate you.


DubbyDoo :

Would you buy the Rusty's kit again? I'm looking at Rusty's, Iron Rock and Rough Country's suspensions. I don't want to put a lot of money into it because its not going to be my "trail truck".

I dunno. . . decisions, decisions.

 

yea id do rustys

 

Assuming you're talking about the other black samurai pickup, I still have it. It stays in the garage next to the pinto. I'm saving all of the parts off of this one for spares for the black truck. One day i'll get around to restoring it, for now I just take it out for a nice drive every now and then to keep it running and such. I have a LONG way to go on this one but it will be done in the spring for sure. Once I make some decent progress I will start updating my build thread on here that I started a year ago lol.

 

I'm definitely in for more build pics of this / these trucks! How did you come across them anyway? Two of them also....?
