thanks man. now get your sami done. start build thread or something.

so, saw this pic of Kanes rig from a local willys gtg. and wanted to see what size tires those are. they are 35" so 35/6=5.8ish. so thats about the size of the of the 2.2 rock beasts

what do you think?

They look great, how much flex and steering would you lose with them?


I found a replacement backpack on flea bay. The one I lost at Sugar Loaf simply can't be replaced, it was a limited edition from Cabela's. It still makes me mad knowing that it's somewhere on that mountain.......

yeah, i know man. sucks that it fell out. too bad that guy who noticed it didnt grab it.

don't lose anything. they fit right in. i'd just have to order a second set because these ones belong on the deuce.

Looked like a great trail run, wish I could have made it. Your new tires are worked really well.

well, getting this ready for the get together saturday and realized the motor is in another truck, and the main driveshaft blew up the last outting, so i have one to replace it with, but i have to move the tranny back a half an inch. it will work, but got some work to do. should be fun though.
