    Let me know if you're in the market for double twin strollers. I got a few, including a hiking offroading one. I'd let them go for dirt cheap (25 cents on the dollar) or trade for inexpensive recovery gear :anonymous:

    Oooh...that’s nice.
    I would have replaced my grill by now but my ARB bumper does a pretty good job of keeping it from falling off.

    Watched a video where the ply performance guys wheeled a 2nd gen on 33's dual locked through it. Although they blew up the steering rack.
    Looked like a ton of fun.

    Gives me hope for my truck on 33's though. Except I also have a crawlbox which should help

    I did it on 35's and my buddy was on 37's. Bigger is better. lol

    I ran 295/70/17's for about 6 months with the crawlbox. I was able to do a lot of shit but still had to stack on occasion. I also got hung up on my diff a lot. I really didn't think 35's would make a huge difference since you only gain an 1" of ground clearance but they do. The larger diameter makes it so much easier to roll up and over things. After this set is done I'm going to 38's.

    Oh no doubt. Currently working on building a full belly skid so I can just drag my shit over everything for now.

    35's are definitely in my future, just not until I wear out these tires. At that point I'll likely have to swap my manual hub spindles to ADD ones so I can have the stronger axles. Haven't broken an axle yet, but figure I shouldn't take my chances when going to 35's.

    You staying IFS with 38's? Jason from Opt offroad with his LT T4R on 37's comes to mind.

    Yep. This rig will be IFS for life. That was the goal I set for it from the beginning. The goal was a rig that I could drive to the Dusy. Wheel the Dusy. Drive home from the Dusy. It's able to do that pretty easily. There will be another tube buggy build in the future for the really hard stuff.

    When I cleared for 35's I went very big. I could fit 37's right now without touching any of the body. The problem is the frame. I already barely touch it with 35 x 12.5s. I've been waiting patiently for someone to make a 38 x 10.5. As soon as that happens I'm buying them and putting them on. I'll deal with the rest after I get the tire I need to make it work.

    Damn well can't wait to see that. You'll be the first to be running 38's on IFS, that I know of at least.
    What's your wheel BS right now and are you running spacers?

    Also, does RCV only warranty those axles up to a certain tire size?
