I haven't had any issues with my rtt covering mine. But different state.

 

Are you contemplating HC or standard or trying to leave as is? I went a year without hooking up mine, I finally did it right before i sold it more so i had the connections for the hard top.

 

I'm scared to death of snakes. Can't catch me coming near one to kill it

 

Yeah man I hate to see people kill any thing that they don't kill to eat. I've seen deer around here get killed just to be killed. Don't make sense and makes me mad that someone would take an animals life like that.

 

The military ones, just reverse the spout then push back into the can. As in put them in upside down, that's how they were designed

 

Saw these guys in the mountains up above jawbone canyon last week. They were within 3 feet of each other one of my coworker almost stepped on the smaller one trying to take a picture of the mojave. Went back to check them out 3 days in a row. Hadn't moved. Probably still a little cold for them at 4200ft. We usually see a dozen or so a year. Can't remember seeing them out this early.

 

Lol, well as long as you're sure about that

 

Rodent lives matter! I kill everyone I see so the endangered kangaroo rat has a chance to survive. This country is so backwards if there was a zombie outbreak there would be zombie rights activists.

 

If you're serious, you're a dick.

 

Pretty sure it's sarcasm...

 

Yes it is the standard height.

 

I was being funny about it, but I killed the shit out of Mojave Greens when I lived down there. I've known two people who have been bit, one was a barefooted female that stepped on one at night, the other was a snake handler who milked them to make anti-venom. When I lived down there I spent several weeks out of the month outdoors doing Army stuff and I had a lot of bad experiences with those bastards. They are the only snake I know of that you can shoot in two and they will still come after you. Now, I understand in a civilian situation how you could say, well, that's the snakes territory, I'll just move on. In a military setting you can't do that. You have to occupy the same space, one has to die. I'm going home tonight, you?

I see the same mentality up here in Oregon with the wolves. Wolf huggers love them and say they are a natural part of the ecosystem blah blah blah. They don't have to live with them in their backyard in the city though! So if you want, I can send some wolves to your neighborhood so they can feed on your livestock and pets. It's only natural. Might as well bring the Grizzly bear back to California too.

 

I wonder if leash laws apply to pet grizzlies...

 

I was thinking the same thing. I'm open/open and just bought a rear Arb. Was wondering if I should have just done both. Hoping just the rear is a big upgrade

 

So a serious question back on topic... my FJ80 needs new tires. I'm looking for pizza cutter 35's that are acceptable on the road but tough offroad. There aren't many choices, and I'm considering Interco SSR''s... Does anyone have experience with them on the highway? I know they are noisy but how bad are they? I really like the performance of a 10.50 on an FJ, not many guys running them though.



Another dude running them-

 

I don't think you can go wrong with doing both but doing the front is big money and then to hardly use it? That's where I'm stuck at. How often will I use it and is it worth the 900$

 

Both my Tacoma and FJ80 have an ARB in the front. I can count on one hand how many times I've engaged them offroad. It's really not needed unless you are doing a lot of rock crawling or deep mud. My rule is to leave it off until I'm stuck, then turn it on just long enough to get unstuck.

 

Exactly why I didn't get one
Currently getting my oba ready for the locker
