Haha too funny.  Yeah I dont expect to see them for sale anywhere as they were probably used to trade for some type of drug or whatever.  Brakes work great and my pull to the left is gone!!!  Tires ride smooth and are not too loud but time will tell as we all know with a mud terrain.  Good price though at $190 a tire for a 35 inch.  I can feel a little slower acceleration with the steel wheels vs aluminum but if I ding a rock I can pound the steel wheel back.  Headed to Nevada for the next 3 weeks for work.  Anybody have any experience with some trails to recommend over there?  I know of some but looking for more as always.

  That build is pretty nice, I'm sure you will immediately notice the off road clearance those tires will give you. What's next on the list?

I've got a bunch of little things to do.
Wire up the locker
Reinstall the skid plates.  (busted a welded nut in the frame so need to deal with that)
Some lights for the roof rack
Redo the cargo area.  Tim and I are going to talk about that at MRV
Etc.  little stuff!

lol

Thanks buddy!  I kinda went a little crazy on the build.

...but, do you meet the requirements to be in the 35-ish" tire club?  Those replies in that thread were killing me.  It kinda brought out some a-holes that don't normally show their true colors.  O0

lol.  I'm having fun with it.  I just made my own club

I'm just waiting for a mod to delete the thread. 

Anyways, the new wheels and tires really did a number for the over all look of the truck.  I was telling Jordan that it makes everything a little more proportional.

Yeah, your truck has changed drastically over the last couple of months, and it's incredible. I like those wheels, I might look at them when my tires are up for replacement.

Got my ARB awning mounted up to the new Front Runner rack. I opted to use Front Runner's brackets that are designed for a different awning made by Howling Moon. The brackets actually push the awning out and up a few inches each direction, which is a much better setup with the rack being so close to the roof line. It sticks up a bit past the platform of the rack, but my intent is to not leave it on all the time and just install it when I'm taking a trip. If I leave the brackets connected to the awning, then I can just detach the entire bracket system from the rack and put it all away in my garage. Should be about a 10 minute job to install or remove it (it's 3 allen head screws per bracket holding them to the rack). Plus, even with it installed, I still clear my garage door by about a half inch. That will change if/when I T-swap.
