I have been a member of trailvoy since 09 and have high respect for the guys that go out and tear up the trails in their tb's and voys. Always good to have the resources for when somethings goes wrong or when you just want to hit the trails. I have slight mods to my 03 tb. BFG all terrian tires and new shocks n struts keep me where i need to be in gas for my daily driver. Thanks and looking forward to the experience.

Sounds great. Thanks for the tip. Love how yur tb looks with the lift. Have always thought about lifting mine but since my main use is back and forth to work and the very occassional trip through the dirt hills i havent jumped on it.

Yeah it is my daily driver and it does all of the family trips but I needed the extra clearance. I still want to go a little taller on the tires but that may have to wait until these tires wear out and I get the gears changed to at least 3.73.

Extra ground clearance would be nice. Seems like 03-05 tb models sit lower then the 06-09 models. I only have about 8000 miles on my BFG all terrians now so i have a ways to go before i have to swap em out. But glad i went with the 255/70/16's. I have considered putting a power chip in but just havent wanted to spend the extra money. Maybe one day!

you don't gain anything from a power chip except headaches. Go with a PCM retune more bang for the buck.
