    Obviously, I wasn't there, but I think the extra layers in a good E rated tire like the KO2 will take more abuse than a C rated street tire.

    I forgot you had a gimbal too, any video like that outside the cab you can send me via Dropbox I might be able to use some of it

    Unfortunately I kept the gimbal inside the truck. Would have made for some sweet shots following trucks, will definitely have to do that next time. I don't think it did much good inside. I haven't looked at that footage to see if I got anything good... But I doubt it.

    Cut & broke off stuff. Prolific ziptie and tape usage.
    Severity of all this work depends on offset of wheels a bit.

    1. CMC. How agressive depends on how far foward your alignment has the front wheels positioned in the wheelwell as well as wheel offset.

    2. Minor trimming of flares and/or fenders at bottom corners at bare minimum. If you are using oem bumper cover, may have to trim it too.

    3. Hammer pinch weld flat.

    I was at about 2-2.5" lift. I went ahead and did all the work you normally do for 35s just to have the clearance for full flex. Remove or adjust fender liner. Trim fenders 2.5" all around. Trim 2" off flares.

    You will notice size & weight when accelerating.
    The Ridge Grapplers looked good and drove great on & off road. But, they're heavy.

    I filled my SD card on my camera. Albeit dash footage, and an hour of that contains the ass of @14Tacos4me truck while we changed tires with @MedlinAround lol
    I'll see what I got, maybe edit, upload to the Tubes, and toss up my stills here. Didn't take a whole lot of pics, too busy going places. Looked like I clocked 125 miles after filling up on Thursday morning in Slade to when we left camp this morning.
    I call that a damn good success! Great time as always with great people!

    Awesome shots @Breezy. I love that pic of @Red Demon truck in the rain and the headlights coming behind it.

    I knew that was the best shot I got this weekend as soon as I looked at the back of the camera lol. Shooting in the rain is always sketch but I always get keepers when I do.
