    I believe his exact words were "I've got moms in minivans lined up out the door needing transmissions replaced, I just don't have time to do rebuilds". Swap for a "guaranteed used unit" with a one year warranty was going to be 3 grand, which is what I paid for the car in the first place. Could have gotten it done cheaper but I put that heap on kijiji and didn't even cry when they towed it away. Shame because I always wanted to do a six speed swap in that car and I had found one but it also needed a rebuild (syncros), just didn't have the time tools or ability to get it done.

    I've only run the Cooper AT/W in the winter, and that mostly through unplowed snow and ice on backroads rather than off trail. They are the best or as good as the best I have in deep snow and major ice. I would expect them to be on average for an AT tire in summer conditions, or for major mud or rocks. Personally, they don't have as much sidewall protection as I want for hauling the trailer around in mud and rock, so I don't run them in the summer, but if I was looking for a single tire to run year round I would only consider them and KO2s. Decision for me would be ice traction vs tougher sidewall between the two.

    Does Cooper drop their tires out of airplanes?



    K-Bro's for the win!

    My Toyo Open Country MT's were probably the toughest tire I've ever owned... Hit a rock, bent a control arm but didn't break a belt. They're pretty impressive!

    I could 100% use your old muffler! I finally fixed my gaskets and that quieted everything up, but created more pressure and made the holes in my muffler bigger haha
