C'mon Zai
I know ya want to.

On another note I got a close look at a CRV suspension. I was kinda hoping I could stay in the honda family but I didn't like what I saw. The rear actually looked decent. One thing I don't like with the CRV as well as the rav 4 is the rear lower controll arm is located near the bottom of the wheel reducing the ground clearance considerably. The front controll arms of the CRV were too short for my liking.
The Rav4 looks like it has longer front controll arms but I haven't gotten a real close look yet. You can tell just by looking at it though it sits higher and is designed to have more suspension travel than the CRV. About the only thing I didn't like were those rear controll arms.
I am still hoping there is some chance it would be possible to use 4Runner FIS and a 22rt.
I will be looking around for other options as well.
