If you crank the torsion bars.... o wait. You have a solid axle right because its a mega.... I think you are going to have to do some sort of small to mild lift.

and hemiyellow I thought you left? I see you got a second gen. Any pics?

Mega, what size tires and wheels do you have now? What kind of mileage are you getting and do you have any issues? I have the stock tires and have been looking to get bigger tires like yours. I currently get 13-14 mpg. I like the look of your tires.
