    Well, I just got my 912s from Rocky-road, but it took almost a month. I would call them direct and see if they have any in stock that can ship right away, otherwise I would find somewhere else...

    Should be plenty of places to order them (Rocky Road Outfitters). If you don't have time to take care of there, let me know and you can ship them to my address and I will also try and suck-up to the roommate and see if he will help get you lifted when your here (he helped me). The hardest part is getting the bolts un-stuck. If everything comes off nice, should be no more than an hour. We normally have all the tools needed at my place.

    Cool

    I'll be bringing a "used less than a year" set of 912's to Moab...
    I'll give Jack (PB Kid) first dibs, if he doesn't want em', the first person with a C-note gets em'.
    That price includes me doing the majority of the install & T-bar crank.
    I bring all tools, jack, & jack stands to the party.

    It took me almost a month to get coils from Rocky because they don't actually stock them. Independent4X has them in stock for immediate shipping.

    The coils alone may not satisfy you on the lift. I used the one-inch spacers atop the 912s and it seemed perfect. Then, of course, you should also get the front end ball joint spacers and do the ball joint flip along with the low profile snubbers then the torsion bar adjustment. Also the polyurethane front & rear anti sway bar bushings, the Extreme Duty lower links (that way you can center the wheels in the center of the rear wheel wells front to back), Extreme Duty upper link (to align the drive shaft, u-joint with the rear axle and then a front end alignment. With a slight nose-down attitude (which looks awesome) you may have to adjust your headlights upward somewhat.

    33's ?? Sweet!
    A bit of bashing ahead to fit em...
    and torsion bar crank crank crank - say bye to any rake...
    Also, are your rims wide enough if they're >x12.50? should be fine on stock if they're x11.5..

    Rocky Road is a relatively small shop and does not keep a big invintory in stock. They usually order their 912's from a drop OME warehouse so it takes them a bit longer to get them to your door step. I would try Matt at Indipendent 4X. I believe he keeps them in stock and I'm sure if you pay a bit more he could overnight or 2nd day them to you...give him a call. Matt does a ton for the Zu community and has great customer service.

    just a thought: if it comes down to it and you cant get the lift in time for moab you may be able to fit those tires anyways. i have 285 75 R16 mud stars on mine with just a 1.5" tbar crank and a bit of trimming forwards of the front tires. i believe that the metric conversion comes out to 32.9 inches. so depending on the REAL size of your tires, it is doable if you are in a bind. ps: not to step on any toes or go against any other findings. i know the debate on what tires will really fit has probably been discussed fairly exhaustively if this is like any other 4wheel forum i have seen :bwgr: also how saggy you are will affect what you can fit. your springs that is:bwgr:
