    Yeah, I have that nice tire holder on the wall. Hmm, that would be a toss up. But, I would probably ride poorly geared all the way to Moab if the MT are larger than my current 285's. I ain't got no money's at the moment though. Got 2k worth of shed to build, 850 worth of rear bumper to buy, then maybe, just maybe tires. Need to work my emergency funds back up also.

    Yeah I'm talking future, not like next month lol. Probably looking like end/beginning of year time for me maybe, will see how my KO2s hold, I just like to prepare for this type of purchase long ahead of time. You def need to get that 850 rear bumper!

    So it was an awesome launch today. Waiting on docking now, then have to cover the hatch opening. After that straight to the airport for a 2 hour wait, 3 hour flight and 2 hour drive back to the hotel.

    Here are a couple of pics, haven't uploaded them to IG yet. We are in a bandwidth critical time with only a 4 Mb connection streaming 2 video feeds and me playing on TW....

    pretty much finished. Have to do shocks tomorrow and im done. Very slight vibe even with OME spacers ill look in to that later. Front cv boots are no longer touching, must have settled just enough.

    Now just have to get tires mounted on method nvs and skids installed when they arrive.. That will wait until mid august after i finish moving etc.

    Watch those rear brake lines. If you don't have extended ones, I suggest removing the bolt that holds them to the axle.

    OK, first off it looks awesome!! Second, I would wait and see how much it settles before taking the OL off. Third, just take the sway bar off! :D
