    There sure is a couple options out there lol. I have always liked Bfg and have had good luck with them. I will say that this set took a shit load of weight to balance them. They did balance and I do not have a vibration, but man did they take a ton of weight.

    I put some in-channel visors on my truck wensday, it said leave them up for 72 hours. Rolled drivers side down yesterday with no problems, they were stuck good. I bought the stick on one's first, they looked terrible just holding them up to the window on my quicksand color. Lucky for me 1 had a crack in it, an they gave me my money back, an let me keep them.

    This was helpful actually, mine states they couldn't recreate the issues I said to them but they found the A/T to be 1 quart low and adjusted.

    Sounds like a great time. Let me know if you get any rubbing with the 285s and where. Enjoy the trip.

    That would be awesome! Sounds like what I'm looking for based off what you describe. Just don't want my wheel to snap off my oem ones when on a trail.

    I saw your post about your sumos and they look sweet. Never used or seen them before, am I right in assuming that they're designed to act as an additional buffer system within the last 1/2 of travel distance?

    I've already flexed the truck out pretty good after some minor trimming of the fender flare, and a little reshaping of the fender liner. no more rubbing currently, but will probably do a cmc in the future anyway. (also only going for 10 days. stupid fat fingers lol)

    Exactly, that's a much better way to get at what I was saying for sure :). I think a lot of people fear rolling only because their body is used to the feeling of a shorter / lower vehicle, and when you're sitting further above that axel roll point you get a slightly false sense of instability.

    Yeah it's pretty straight forward and easy.. Took me about 15 mins to change all the bulbs.. I got the kit on Amazon.. It was 19$ or something like that. It came as a pack to change out the map lights, dome light, vanity lights and rear license plate lights.

    Haven't noticed that but I use the digital speedometer inn the middle section. Don't pay much attention to the speedometer on the right. I'll have to check it out more often.

    I got the same kit. One of my bulbs already failed. The dome light in the middle of the cab. About 3months in.

    Started flickering.. Couple days Later it wouldn't come on. The rest still work. For now anyways.

    some and more and more and more and
    They actually work through the entire motion. They are progressive and you are always in contact so they're functioning from the beginning to the end . They do initially lifted truck about a half of an inch . If anything more they help level the truck out because of the gas tank being and the driver side of the vehicle
