    Downside of awd is 4 tires replaced all the time, regardless if it was 1 bad tire (or so I was told).

    Yeah that's what I've seen as well if the tread difference is too different. Luckily these were just worn down and all needed replacing anyways. They were at 4/32 so had a little life left but not much. May as well replace them now.

    Purchased a pair of these last night for my bumper. They'll go on the end of the main upper tube, rather than just cap them off. Thought it'd be neat.

    But frfr. That will look great. Terminating tube is not always done well. I'm stoked to see how your bumper turns out.

    I think I'll ask a question over here. Someone keeps hogging the mic in other joints.....

    For the OEM fender flare delete are most folks just shaving down the plastic clips and filling them with Bondo or whatever? I've been trying to find another solution and I keep coming up with nothing. I thought about getting a bunch of button head bolts with large washers to fill the slot, but from what I can see in pictures, it'd have to be a rather large washer. I hate these things with a passion and want them gone.

    Do third gens even have the holes in the fenders? I didn't think they did like second gens.

    Where'd you source your parts from? Locally or elsewhere? I'm needin to do this same job and have been avoiding it on the basis of I don't want to.

    The automatic right lane seeking steering wheel is getting a little old if I'm honest.

    jk yes you do. Yes shave down and fill with bondo, and use a neoprene washer to keep pressure on the clip so it stays snug

    I should just add an unnecessary amount of tubes that need terminating, and use spikes on all of them.

    I support this endeavor. Jaime would also support this.
