    Mind sharing what tires you got and how much they cost? Also interested in his method of balancing at my home.

    Yeah he doesn't own a shop, he is completely mobile. It's awesome when he changes your tires while your at work and you just pay the man for a job well done.

    All I have ever bought from him is Nitto Terra Grapplers but he is great with everything. My most recent purchase is a set of 285/70r17 installed for just over $700. This summer I got a set of 265/65r17 installed for somewhere in the ballpark of $580.

    The last set of 265/70r16 I bought was a year ago, and they were $745. Also got a set of 265/65r17 load range E for $921.

    The tires I got weren't E rated but I'm telling you he gives good deals.

    Although I’ve never priced out that tire, that seems like a fair deal. I’d be interested to see him work.

    I run the load range E on my tacoma, because of the weight I carry daily for work.

    Called that guy and got quoted 209 per tire installed plus tax for 265/70R17 KO2s. That's cheaper than everywhere else by over $100 for all four. Sam's club was not too bad at 223 per tire. But they wouldn't install them on my truck since, according to their books, that tire size "isn't recommended".

    I've had success by leaving vehicle make/model out of the conversation and just leaving a set of wheels to be mounted and balanced with their new tires. Your mileage may vary though.

    Price installed for all four was 907.88 from Sams I believe. I think they are running an $80 off the purchase of four tires sale.

    Anyone know of any good fabricators/welders in the area? Particularly someone that can bend some tube and is easy to work with?
    I want to have a headache rack made because I don't like any of the commercial offerings.

    Not sure what a headache rack is, but i will be getting a few mods done to a Pelfreybilt bumper next week and can ask if does any tube bending. Bailey Spencer Welding in Madison Heights is where I’m taking it

    Rear window/back of cab protector is usually what headache rack applies too in a pickup... correct? I wish my company still could sub out outside work but we are slammed and I think all outside requests aren’t being taken right now :notsure:

    Yep. Main purpose is to keep objects in the bed from coming into the cab.
    I want one mainly to mount some camp lights on.

    If you remember to, I would appreciate it.

    If any of you guys want to have a mod day let me know, you can always do it at my place. Have lift, some tools, a little bit of knowledge, just bring beer. I don't work on them I just point and laugh mostly.

    I’m down to help out of nothing else, and I still owe some beer from last fall... I have a ton of wiring to do and willing to lend a hand while I screw around with that.
