Damn Sue, you're quick-- already sniffin' out the Roof Rack from the salvage White VX. lol.
Etfren-- Congrat's on gettin' BigMeat's 5-speed VX. I know you've been searchin' a long time for just the right VX. You might want to keep the Roof Rack and transfer it over to your Ebony since you like to go campin' and such (it would come in handy for a roof basket to haul a full-size spare or for mounting a canoe/kayak, etc).
I see BigMeat kept his huge tires. If you decide to go to a 35" O.D. tire, then please consider the 285/75R18 (35" O.D.) size available from Toyo (A/T & M/T), Maxxis (Bighorn M/T), Good/Year (M/T-R with Kevlar). The 285/75R18 would fit perfect on the OEM 18x7 rim (maybe get the OEM rims powder-coated).
Congrat's again, and we look forward to seeing you at the next PNW meet for VX'ers when the time comes.
