    So I found a picture of a ct70 like mine with black wheels. So what do y'all think? Paint them black or leave them original? I'm not sure if it would kill the kinda "classic" vibe I get from it. The first picture is my actual bike.

    Don't paint them. Keep it factory.

    They do not have many pictures of your old truck. Think we should send them a few that we have?

    I assume painting them will kill the value?

    Went riding around in jeeps today. First off I'm pretty sure the guy who was renting them out was a moron. He told all of us that on the trails we need to be in 4lo with both the front and rear lockers in at all times. The "trails" were more like gravel roads. Pretty much the same condition as the main roads at bridgeport. Then I when I told everyone that it could be done in 2wd they thought I was retarded. I mean I of all people would know what you can do in 2wd. So yeah they drove around all day through hair pin turns and turns you had to back up to get around in 4lo, locked front and rear.

    Because it sounds better for dumbasses who do not know any better when they say they were in 4Lo and locked front/rear.

    It was unbelievably annoying. I eventually gave up telling them if they unlocked the diff's the jeep would actually turn worth a damn
