battery wieght???

[charlie]

Hey anyone know what our stock batteries weigh?? I was just given a redtop optima 800 cca battery but it wieghs 38lbs any opinions??

[toddlong]

the stock one weight maybe 12 lol how big is that thing... width and height and how do you like having you bed removed

i just re did my rear diff changed the bolts i had to cut the heads down and use parts from a spare rear end with the proper shims

Ya I figured the stock battery was a lot lighter lol guess ill just put the optima in my fj cruiser haha. Ya I had my rear diff rebuilt by Lenny back a while ago and the front. was driving along heard a clunk then nothing but so far so good. Lenny ran his t2 harder than anyone with lot more power and after rebuild he had no issues so that's what I am hopping for

I love the way the bed looks off it I always carried to much stuff mostly my buddies shit so this will solve that. I had been wanting to change it for a long time took some weight off by doing it. This weekend I am taking the stock light bar off that will take almost 8" height off the top of the t2 and I'm putting a 24" LED light bar under wear the stock bar is. Another thing I like without the bed is now the main cage and back are tied in more strength

[toddlong]

yeah i like that idea to did you ever lower your cage yet

[charlie]

I was gonna lower my cage but I had a soft top and doors made for it thats why I am taking the factory light bar off

[toddlong]

awesome and where did you have it made or is it one of thee ones off ebay .... and have you seen the hard cabs for them.... and how have your diffs held up to the bigger tires

[charlie]

I had my top made by my ex mother inlaw other wise Id give you her info but the divorce didn't go smooth lol. My diffs have held up great i run synthetic fluids in them. Hands down one the best upgrades I did was the 30" tires gearing is way better now first gear you can use and top end is nice to I do a lot low speed riding and its great I dont beat the hell out of my T2 in fact I could probably drive it harder but I got the biggest badest toy in my group so I am Happy

[toddlong]

thats right i wanna go to 30s i do alot of trail riding and a good bit of pavement riding so i think i m going to go with a super swamper truck tire maybe i need something aggressive that wont wear out in 3 months

[charlie]

carefull on the swampers I dont remeber but I feel like that was a pretty heavy tire. I have the zillas on mine NOT the mud zilla and I cut down a lot street when I go out and they have held up really well I run like 10lbs air

I run outlaw 2 at 29.5 height they are very aggressive for mudding and doesn't rub but they are very heavy and chunky
