    He will make it I was just saying it’s gonna take a lot longer. I’m telling you drew was sitting in skids and had trouble most of the way. Took about 1.5 hours longer. He made it through though

    It was night and day difference between me and him lol. We took same lines he couldn’t do what I did then I tried to get him on a couple of different lines which he also struggled with. He got high centered on his skids a lot. Honestly think it was his tires. Duratracs that had about 50%

    I wasn't there so I can't really say but one more inch of clearance is a difference but if all else is equal it shouldn't make much of a difference.

    Was just able to buy 2 Aero M4E1 lowers. All things considered, $112 each wasn't too bad.

    Gonna build a 410 pistol out of one and just stick the other to the side until I can build the 300 canned SBR.

    My FFL charges me $5 per transfer! Of course, he's a one-man show, operating out of his home.

    Gunshops around here charge $25 for transfer fee. My local guy can get me any part and any gun I want, I just have to be patient and wait for him to find me what I'm looking for.

    5 for 1 fee.. a little concerning that you know that. I’m headed to @gixxerphil ’s place when the apocalypse starts.

    Skids mounted lower, lines taken, driver experience, lockers pulling you across, tire grip, shock mount flip... lot of things care affect a truck but 33s over 32s is a half inch, lol

    I'm thinking about trying this Midwest LPK. It's $100 cheaper than my Elftmann trigger and it'll be for the 410, so not sure I want to spend big money on that particular gun.

    I got 265/70/17s. I think that's a 32" tire? I'm gonna get an extra set of wheels with 285s for when I go wheeling. I'll commute with the 265s.
