    I’ve never like the Duratracs. Had a couple sets and balancing was a pain and got loud at lower tread.

    Loved my Falkens on the last truck and they are still relatively cheap (285/75/17 have gone up $300 since I bought). I’ll just see what kind of deals are available for both when the time comes.

    Fuck Amazon and their new in-house delivery service! When you use wannabe-Uber drivers for deliveries, and their garages as warehouse hubs, you're bound to piss off paying customers.

    ...all I have so far is the 3.5" clamp.
    Most was expected on Friday, and the rest yesterday.

    I've had over two dozen delivery issues this year already, and they've all been because of the Amazon Logistics delivery. It's to the point now where they've finally submitted a form for that delivery service to be removed as an option for my future orders. Once the request is approved, I will go back to UPS, USPS, FedEx, and OnTrac for my deliveries, and it's sad that this excites me so much.

    I ordered the black calipers too, but they messed up and sent me red. Decided to just keep it and take the $100 refund they sent me.

    I'm not sure the USPS is any better. I've received packages a day or two late and marked "Dog Out". Ummm. The dog is inside and I am not home...

    The limitation on OHV access just doesn't stop, does it?

    As many of you know, Oceana Dunes (Pismo) recently had limitation placed on where off-road vehicles could be. Well, they're at it again.

    I've got an extra set of spindles in storage if someone needs a set to weld up without pulling them off truck. @CrashN'Burn FYI.
