    Did you do anything with your flares to bolt them on so they don't rip off?

    Brand new tabs will help hold them better. I drilled holes in mine and put a bolt through so I would have to buy new clips and wait for shipping

    FWIW I prefer mine to pop off under pressure so the damage isn't transferred to the fender itself. Most every time I wheel I come back with at least one flair in the bed of the truck. Flair clips from eBay are $2.50 for like 50 of them so it's an easy fix.

    Got them 37's mounted yet? I think its awesome that you decided to go with KO2's as opposed to a mud terrain.

    Sure did. I also cut the cab mount back a little more. Still not enough at full lock so I will just be relocating the whole thing in the spring. It only rubs in reverse on the drivers side at full lock.

    They measure around 36.4 when they are mounted and aired up to 35 psi. They are incredibly quiet compared to the MTR’s. My wife asked if the truck was on when I was off the gas coming to a stop.

    i got mine with MTs on it, was going to move to trepadors, but now I might have to try a truck with ATs to see if it's a better buy if it's really that quiet

    Softopper is the way to go. That looks awesome. Why did you opt for the Sport over the OR?

    Well, I liked all of the color matched stuff going on and knew I wanted to go with an ARB locker at some point.
