    Some really cool shit
    Let me axe you a question. Just out of curiosity, if you do a gear change in the rear, what, if anything, must be done to the front? I hear guys talking about 35" tires, and a gear change is almost mandatory. But, what about the front?

    Both axles need to change. Otherwise you’ll destroy the transfer case since the driveshafts will try to spin at different speeds.

    That's what I thought, but rarely heard talk of the fronts. I guess it was a given.

    Nothing fun like you're thinking.
    I'm still trekking, and have another 18 hours to go.

    Had this happen earlier in Wyoming:

    Have video too, but don't feel like uploading right now.

    We are driving the loop around Denver right now, but will probably hit the storm again once we get on 70 east.

    Someone please educate me on the reason for using small diameter wide wheels with under width tires on a high lift truck. It looks like a confusion of goals. I'm gonna resist the temptation for crude jokes on his possible genome. Maybe he's short and couldn't reach the door handle? Maybe it wouldn't fit his parking clearance?

    its called cencal style. its been around forever. Originally it was for little rubbing when at the beach. Now its gone into full blown powdercoating wild colors and 22x14s on 12.5 tires.

    Not my style, not my truck.

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    Do you mean the ‘SATISFACTORY’? I can make something like that for you easily.

    Edit:
    Just had a request yesterday to make one like this
