  1. Awful time deciding! 35 vs 37! Help!

    I'm with ya on the tough decision. All set to put 35's and be happy, then see a JT going down the highway with 37's and think, awe hell, gotta do it. But then I want to maintain a good ride so I wanna stay with load range C and I really like the response with the factory tires and dont wanna...
  2. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    I have the Daystar spacer lift and they fit with no issues...
  3. Semi-Cross country Gladiator Mojave

    I had those warning lights and they cleared as well. Speaking with the service dept they suggested that as long as the light is not "blinking" its not a current issue and was something that occurred but may not be there anymore. If I have a light blinking on the dash to bring it in for sure...
  4. Tire Choice for Mojave

    I am leaning heavily towards this tire. Can you give a measurement in height to compare with the stock Falkens? I added a 2" spacer and wanna see how much it'll fill the wheel well now.
  5. Let's see those Mojave's and Mods

    Those look nice. Is that stock height? I'm in the market and this may have swayed me towards Toyo.
  6. ***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

    The brackets were part of the kit. Have to drill a couple of holes to secure the brackets to the existing shock mount, but other than that it bolts right up. Here is a link to the kit I purchased. There are a couple of differences. In the description it says 2" front and rear but in actuality...
  7. ***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

    No, basically it is all still the same just spaced up 2" with shock extension brackets to allow you to keep the existing shocks. This kit also comes with extended lower control arms to correct the front end geometry to maintain proper alignment. Very happy with the kit and the results
  8. ***Official Mojave Thread*** Lets talk Mojaves

    I installed the Daystar 2" this week. All good. Ride is the same and I love the extra height. Looks more like a desert runner. Will run it like this for a while with 35's added down the road after I get the other goodies added.
  9. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    Even drilling from both sides, I had one that was slightly off but was able to get the bolt to line up enough to get it through. It's just a support bolt so alignment accuracy isn't crucial on that one in my opinion. Just tighten it down good to keep the bracket from shifting. I am a little...
  10. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    I just re-read and saw that you had to drill that front left also. Makes me feel better. Guess it's not a Mojave thing. Also, I took extra precaution and unbolted the rear calipers and hung the from the frame while lifting the rear. I was not comfortable stretching thos brake lines to get the...
  11. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    I'll probably run like this for a while. I have some other things I wanna do to it before tires and wheels (I enjoy working on it so I'm pacing myself). I did drill the holes for the rear shock brackets. Luckily i have an angle motor drill and a stubby bit which fit in that space but still...
  12. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    So here she is, with the Daystar 2" as it comes, 2" front, 1.5" rear. I like the stance and as long as my bed rack doesn't squat it too much I am good with the results.
  13. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    So for my mock-up I measured at the track bar connection to the frame on both front and rear since it's right over the axle and would represent a true 2" and 1.5" spacer at the axle. True I did jack out at the front and rear, but monitored the height I was raising at the axles, not out at those...
  14. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    So based on Moe and Renegades comments I have done some re-measuring and I hadn't taken into account for the raised front fenders, but yes, there is still a significant amount of take front to rear, with the amount depending on where you choose to measure. To satisfy my curiosity and with the...
  15. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    I've read it's been done, within reason, on other forums and other vehicles. It sure looks like they are made to be nested together the way they are made. The Daystars all have the protruding knob in the center that sticks up and they also have a void of the same shape and size on the bottom so...
  16. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    Thanks all. I am going to get the 3/4 spacer on its way to add if needed. My thinking is this... I currently like the stance but I will be adding a 120lb deck lid in coming months so the extra 1/4" will probably get eaten up to bring it back to stock orientation but just 2" higher all around...
  17. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    Good tips. So I guess I'm stuck figuring out what to do for that extra 1/2" lift in the rear. Anyone have suggestions?
  18. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    Thanks for the insight. I am on hold till Monday when I can talk to someone at Daystar and see what's going on. I am certainly not going to install as it is because given that mine already sits level I do not want to put on a kit that's gonna make it sit 1/2" high in the front especially when I...
  19. Daystar 2" Lift for Mojave

    I also noticed that the sleeves that go into the bushings for the control arms have a ridge along the inside which if the sleeves are in fact the correct size for the bolts, there's no way the bolts will fit without some drilling and/or grinding on my part. Did you experience this as well?
