Canadian sources for Jeep parts and off-road tires

Jun 12, 2004 6 Replies

Hello,



My name is Sean, i live in Ontario Canada. I just recently discovered this newsgroup and thought it would be a good source of information. I just recently bought an 87 YJ which i have already lifted with a 2.5" spring lift, rebuilt the stock 258 and added a new Weber carb and clifford header and a homemade 2.5" exhaust with a flowmaster 40series muffler. The leather seats i scavenged from a nissan. I'm building this Jeep for fun and off-road kicks, not for any off-road competitions.



I was wondering if anyone could recommend to me a good place to go for Jeep parts and where I can find Interco TSL tires, in Ontario would be best.



I was also wondering about lift shackles, which manufacturer has the best etc.



I hope to be able to offer any knowledge that I may have gained from the work I did on my Jeep. Thanks to all that read and those that can help.



Sean

I thought you were going to off rod your rig, not put it on a show floor.

I have seen those TSL 'stuckbirds' in action once. I 'really' felt sorry for the poor Jeep driver. His 3 or 4 passengers were out pushing him across some muddy grass while a Pontiac Acadian full of kids drove in circles around him just pissing themselves laughing!

As far as I know those tires are 'show' tires only, they 'sure' won't go anywhere on our Ontario trails.

Hi Mike,

He didn't specify Interco TSL Thornbirds. Just guessing, but he's probably interested in Interco TSL Super Swampers:

Ok, that makes more sense. I just hear and see folks going for those 'pretty' tires not knowing they are show tires.
