Finally got this rolling. This forum is designed for off-road specific technical discussions, such as questions about lifts, tires, or other modifications such as converting your York to an air compressor (which I highly recommend to any serious 4wheeler btw) etc, etc, etc.

Have fun. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well since this seems to be the place to ask, here it goes.

4" Skyjacker lift running 33X12.5, the rear could stand to come up so I ordered 1.5" blocks. Am I going to have any rear diff. angle problems ?
Thanks

Thanks Dome, I didn't used to frequent the site too often since there were just WAY to many threads in the two main discussion folders. This lets me follow the ones I'm really interested in.Thanks man!
