    285/75R17 on methods, Icon RR front with UCA, dakars with fox 2.0's out back. CBI Dakar Hybrid with homemade 1/4" skids. 4.56's with ARB.
    Doubtful, there's some other brands with a 295/75R16, which is still .5-.75" short of the 285/75R17 but cooper doesn't have any tires in that size, they have the 295/70r17. 16" tires are going to be more and more difficult to come by because the market isn't as strong for them, many new vehicles can't even fit a 16 so manufacturers don't want to design sizes for them.

    37s are my next tire. the rear is easy enough and i think LT will make the front relatively painless. i already have a cab relocate sitting around too

    It's a work in progress. See my build thread.
    42's buddy! That's what I'm talking about.

    I think it hit when it was getting cycled. A lot of my stuff is marked up though in my wheel well by having dirties.

    The top 2 bolts/scews come in behind the wire harness in kick panel that lower bolt is 4 inches below those and can't be seen from inside the cab. I think it's just extra parts:fingerscrossed:20180327_135615.jpg

    Oh sweet. So if I manage to fling water in there it’s getting on wires. I think I’ll get some sheet metal and weld over the hole I created.

    You punched in the lowest bolt? I pulled the grommet next to that one today and wedged a light in front of it. I couldn't see light in the cab or in the pocket that holds the cab mount bolt. I pulled that lowest bolt today. It's a coarser thread and had corrosion on the threads. When I tightened it back it had little to grab onto and kept spinning. I think it's just threaded into plastic. Need to get a parts diagram and see what it really is. As far as I could tell that lowest bolt does not enter the main cab but I need to do more research.

    I only saw 2 bolts when I was hammering stuff. It was the left hand bolt on the passenger side.

    I’ll have to pull the interior panels and see. I could just fill it in with weld if it’s not important.
