I can’t decide which ones I like better. 🤯Name:  348D426F-BA86-42D7-B33B-9DA0BBCC3010.jpeg

This is too funny. I did the same pic. I think yours looks better with the black wheels

I think mine looks better with the white. I think it may be the smaller tire.

I like the black wheels better. Though it looks like the fronts may rub the body when the wheels are turned.

Nice! It was hard to tell by looking at them on my tiny phone screen!

I do like them tires! They have been great on my Trailwalker!

Here is a video from today’s first time out run. I’m thinking I may throw a set of 4.19 proline km3 class 1 1.9 tires on it. The stock tires are ok. I can’t tell any difference between the general AT and the mud thrashers.

the truck looked really good. That is a great spot for it. the 4.19 will rub the lower front fender. Now I see why the marlin doesn't have the lower part.

Yes I tried it when I got home it does rub with the 1.9. So I’ll run 1.55 I don’t feel like cutting up the body

Kept the 1.55 wheels but in took the generals off and swapped with the growlers. Very slight rubbing. I think this looks pretty good.

Ha ha I just received and installed my JunFac shafts yesterday. I wanted to use the longer set screw/pin that the stockers used, so I had to shorten the diff. and transfer case shafts just a little maybe 1mm or so. They are pretty nice first time to used this brand of shaft, nice scale look to them.

I think it looks really good. To me the 4" and smaller tires look better on the tf2.

Did you do the bowhouse rear shackle mounts? My lhs just ordered me a set. They terminate the shackle a bit further back ro prevent the leafs from locking up on compression.

Dirt runner no I haven’t. I fully compressed the rear and my rear shackles hardly move. So for now I’m not going to be doing that.

I wonder if it's the longer wheel base? After removing the internal springs from the shocks on mine it locks up on articulation.
