    It’s one of our electric cooperatives. Most of their lines have some great trails around here. Many aren’t gated.

    Do they trespass you off the property if you get caught on it? Here in NC a lot of the power line trails may not be owned by the power company they just lease the right to use that swath of land for the power lines. Also we can have trespassing issues here.

    Yep. Rran into the same thing a couple of weeks ago with the passenger side, plus the retaining clip kept popping off to make it enven more fun. Also went with the Sylvania SS Ultras.

    I probably do my oil changes unnecessarily too often. Bought the truck with 3 miles on it, after a "break in" period around 1,000 miles I switched to Mobil 1. At 5k on the clock I did another oil change, and have done it every 5k after that (makes it easy to remember lol). My baby is well lubed :D

    I also did my oil catch can at that 1,000 mile oil change, so hopefully that helps a lot too. Time will tell...

    Never been caught before. Of course I don’t leave any mess behind. Only drive in and drive out. I haven’t seen any do not trespass signs at the others. On this one there are a few other entrances, but they are marked for so hunting. I make sure to not have a gun when I’m on those. Poaching is “the norm” here, but I don’t want to be the one accused when that’s not even what I’m doing.

    Well, they are quiet and the ride is great once I dropped the air pressure down to 35psi.

    I will do some follow up reviews in the tire section when I get some miles on them.

    Bought a Viair 88 from Amazon for $40. Is anyone mounting this thing on their truck permanently and if so, where at?

    Also was going to paint the factory tow point but the rear bolt broke inside. Anyone know how it threads up inside? Can't seem to thread it back in.

    A thing or two...
    Flushed/bled the brakes and clutch. Added a shim under my driver side fog light, so I can aim it down more. Balanced the tires, and confirmed that my water pump is leaking.

    Washed it, waxed it and did a full interior detail. It desperately needed it. Mudding is fun, until you have to clean up your mess. There's still mud in places I'm not quite sure how it's possible to get mud.

    I've also put almost 9,000 miles on it in just four months, so there's that too.

    The FedEx guy just showed up with my new Nitto Ridge Grapplers 265/70/17 will have them put on this Friday, hopefully I don’t have to do too much to get them to fit nicely on my stock suspension. They look big.
