Redeemed: rngr's Trail Taco w/side of T4R

I’d be really curious how much GC the 1st gen 35” tire guys have at 10psi.

 

Nice tires, man! I’ve never driven a bias ply before.

Completely off the subject, but what paint did you use on your side markers? Whatever shit paint I used on mine is starting to peel off and on top of that, it’s a few shades off of super white. It isn’t a major thing, but it does kinda bug the crap out of me.

 

They drive exactly like you’d think they do. Haha.

Page 28 for the paint. Duplicator Universal white.

 

Found it. Thanks!

 

Harder than it should have been.

I always wanted to try these tires. I heard they are pretty sticky as well.

I love me some pizza cutters!!!

 

They are very sticky. Everything about these tires are extremely thick and extremely soft. I have high hopes for their off-road performance.

Don’t take this as me saying they ride good, because they don’t. But they do offer a much more “cushy?” on road ride than the km2s. They just feel soft. Like, they soak up big bumps in the road well.

They also shake like crazy at low speeds and roar like a sonofabitch! Haha

Everything's going to ride like shit on the road after km2s!!

 

Mine was 20" to the frame and a smidge over 12" at the front skid with basically no lift I think

 

Measure at the rear diff too. A bit more accurate since skid clearances potentially change based on peoples setups. I can measure mine next time I am aired down, I only measured aired up when I got them.

 

Good call! Thank you.

 

Latches done.

 

Should have put them in the flat piece of metal you'll be attaching to the top between the inner and outer skin, right behind the cup holder.

 

Due to the way they’re made, flush mounting them would have been a major pain. You’d have to see them to understand.

 

You doubt my MacGyver abilities? I'm insulted.

 

Sorry, dad.

 

Did a final test fit to make sure I’m satisfied with where they’re cut before I weld them up. Did my best to hold the camera in the exact same position for each pic.

I’m happy with the increased view. I can barely tilt my head and see the ground at my tire. The cut is just barely above the usual mud spray line. Did I say I hate mud?

 

My curiosity is nagging me.

If a 34x10.5 LTB is 33” tall, then i wonder how tall the 35x10 tsl SXII is? Think I’ll call them tomorrow and see if I get somebody to actually stick a tape measure on one.

I was really wanting to be straddling the “barely going to fit without tubbing” line.
