    Cool. You're awesome! I'm always looking @ cheap Amazon alternatives (because I'm a tightwad), but I always wonder if they're any good. I'm glad to see they do, and I'm glad I'm not the only one! :wink: Thx for your input! I will definitely be checking these out. :thumbsup:

    haha thanks! yeah I feel you when it comes to finding a less expensive route...i would like rigid or arb...but cannot justify spending 700+ bucks on a set of lights when I can go a cheaper but still functional route...$700 is a lot of gas :)

    How is it with the camper?? Enough power? This would be my ideal but I figured the weight of the camper and gear on the 4 would be too much.

    Tires are great...they definitely come in handy with heavy loads (E rated).
    I love the instant lift from the 33s, perfect height for a DD IMO.
    I would have preferred Cooper Max, but were difficult to locate down south.
    Any 255 is going to be heavy, I just think they Coopers might wear a bit better then the BFGs.

    New gears will help with the winding hilly roads (especially when carrying a load).
    I still haven't installed 4.88s, everything is still in a box :p

    Doooo eeeeet. You will love the 4.88s. I have them in my truck with 295s and it is a pleasure to drive again. I have like 800lbs constant load as well

    I also have a 5spd 2.7
