    Did you check with Drew @tacobell007 . He reps SOS. Honestly for the most part they are very similar, so wherever you get the best price unless you're looking to really beat them and need the super duper beefy BAMF ones.

    I had a full RCI set on my FJ and they were great. Bashed the shit out of them all over NH and never had any issues.

    i had a full set as well, bought them, primed, painted, and then sold them needing money for other crap, plus my vehicle is the primary only tow vehicle so hoping to change that soon and have my truck be freed from the chains of tow duty

    Great with the wheels, but the biggest difference is with the dirt king lca's. The suspension is soooooooo much more responsive.

    They were c rated 265/70R17 BFG KO2'S and they had 65000 miles on them. They still had about 5000 miles left. I gave them to @LivinLoud to give to his cousin.

    Morning' everyone. What's on tap this hot ass weekend!

    I'll be filling the little holes from the framing of the walls on our foundation just got poured and then damp proofing the outside before any backfilling and whatnot hopefully at the end of next week. Sounds like full construction will start first week of August:thumbsup:. Trying to get the MIL in before winter so the guy whose taking over her house can get all settled too.

    I'm connecting my second horn, figuring out where to mount my remote start module and modding my center console so my CB will fit where I want it.

    This is why my Ford is a pavement princess. It’d be pretty useless on the trails up here, too long, really shitty turning radius and a suspension that doesn’t like to flex at all. Does awesome on the highway though!

    First tow for the new truck, it got 12 mpg towing the camper and a solid hour of stop and go traffic. Straight highway, I bet I can do even better. Big improvement from the 7 I got with the gas model.

    Got even better, met the contractor to make sure we were all on same page and realized they never broke off the rebar sticking out to the forms. So I had to knock all those off before I can fill the holes that are then created :thumbsup:

    wasn’t bad tho and I got them all in under an hour. Switching out the 02 sensor on my cat and then will fill the holes in the afternoon when the sun isn’t hitting it anymore!!:cool:

    They've got 15% off on their site from the 4th but shipping blows them way up on cost. I can get a powder coated plate for less through RCI. SOS has a fixed rate of 150 for shipping. RCI is 35 bucks to ship.
