    I think it didn't really over heat, I think it was just flashing stuff briefly. It wasn't on after I restarted it.

    I've ran the 265's forever. They've never held me back. Any anything that was challenging, 33's weren't going to fix either.

    That has been my experience as well, at least as far as midsized

    Like that! A tree is a tree. You have one , and that’s all that matters. I decorated a jade plant with a tiny string of ornaments one time. Thought it was great

    Haha nice.

    I mean don't get me wrong. Bigger tires would have helped me in the some of the stuff I've been escorted down. But I don't feel 33's would have been much better. When I go bigger I'm just going straight to 35's

    As with everything in life, its all about compromise.

    32s do it around here. For what I am willing to get into these days anyway.
    If I had a dedicated trail rig..... That would be different.

    I've got 6112s as well and love them. Only thing I'd wished I'd done was clear coat them before putting them on. @dc welding coated his and they look like new.

    I know how you feel.. My King's look like complete shit right now. The external resie connectors are all rusted over, the aluminum is all corroded and I'm sure they're going to be a blast to adjust this spring...



    Oh and Hi everyone! Here for my monthly drop in and say hi that I'm still alive and I actually drove the truck the other day!!

    Noticed that my e-locker actuator on the truck doesn't work. Any thoughts without having to replace the whole unit which I can only imagine how much will cost.....
    Also anyone ever worked on these? Can I just remove it without draining the fluid or is a full flush needed?

    does it try to and just doesn't engage? mine had an issue the other day when i pulled my works forklift out of mud (buffoons) but it did engage eventually. if they don't get used often enough they become more and more difficult to engage.

    Worked fine mid year, but I have been traveling so much I have only put like 4k on the truck this whole year.

    I press it, I hear a click from the back of the truck but the light flashes still and it doesn't engage. Tried being at full droop, figure 8's, reverse figure 8's, wide slow turns, sharp slow turns, neutral 4lo then locker engage before putting into gear you name it I have tried it except launching it into the river...
