UPDATE:

I have once again delayed my own project with my need for it to be perfect..well perfect to me.

Once the fenders and paint were done we realized that the Mariah front fenders will only allow a 235 up front. What the fuck is the point in that!!

On Mariah's web page they say 1.25" wider. I made the ignorant mistake of thinking that meant 1.25" wider usable tire space. I guess it means the fender is actually 1.25" wider.

Whatever, not really that big of a deal.

Doug is going to do the same thing to the front fenders as was done to the rear; custom metal fender flares.

This will also give Logan time to get further along with the slide throttle R&D.

I have pictures but they are body shop pictures. You know, white dust in all of the cracks, dirty windshield and super ugly tires that don't fill the fenders anyway. I will show pictures when body work is done and new wheels and tires are on.

I will be using Toyo R888 295/18 rear and 255/18 front. The front will be 100% usable in all possible conditions of suspension travel from lock to lock. The f/r tires are both 25.1" tall. That is .1" taller than stock. I think it is a great combination without being to radical.

See you in a couple of months..
