my terra grapplers will not last 40k

 

I think he meant the Dune Grapplers

 

i know, i was just throwing it out there.

nitto tires in general are known to be great at what they are intended for, but historically get poor tread life.

 

My cousin has 50k on his. He's runnin them on a Dodge but I think he rotates them every 3-6k miles. Anyways they are almost bald lol. My dad has 40k miles on his which have maybe 1/8 of the tread left

 

i rotate mine every 5000.

they're at 7/32'' to 8/32'' depending on where you put the tread depth guage.

based on my current mileage, i'll get about 30k out of them. i'll probably get a set of MTs before i reach that though

 

are you going to get KM2s?

 

i'm going to try out a set of the treadwright guard dogs. if i don't like them or i tear them up on rocks, then oh well, they aren't that expensive and i can get a set of km2s or something of that nature

 

it's REALLY tempting though....they are running a sale on the 35'' version of that tire, and it's only $6 more per tire than a 33. damn gearing :/

 

Yea after Paul got his 6" lift with 35s, he says it bogs so bad. He's dieing to get it regeared.

 

don't we all wish money grew on trees lol

 

yeah, that's the only thing stopping me. i'd need to regear for wheeling and towing, and when i regear i'm doing lockers at the same time, so it's not a small task as far as money goes

 

Colin, how is your business coming along?

 

well, i'm just getting home from vacation tomorrow, so the last 10 days not much has gotten done. i'm working with coil (silver07taco) on a couple things. i'll be building him a headache rack and a a set of grill and headlight guards for his front bumper. similar to what jason has on his. i also have a couple of smaller things outside of tacomaworld. i've been so busy lately though that i haven't posted anything on here. i'm assumeing that when i do i'll get enough to keep me busy, even if it's the little stuff.
need to draw something up for ryan when i get home too. got a couple of ideas in my head, just have to transfer them to paper.

 

Good deal

 

I think they are half liter bottles. I could never find this stuff at home. I have been able to get it here in italy and than i first tried it in africa but it would be awesome to try it on tap. I might see if i can sneak a few home with me on the plane.

 

ah, nice. don't think i'd ever complain about a bigger beer bottle (assumeing it's quality of course)


if you're ever in/near melbourne, let me know and i'll take you to the tavern that has it on tap. they have the best pulled pork sandwiches too.

 

Yeah the beer is awesome. I am gonna be looking more when i get back home but i will definitely hit u up on that offer when i get back.

 

So i had to drink one tonight to see what you were talking about the banana smoothie.... didnt taste it in the first beer to i had to have another... well still dont taste it so i will just keep drinking them till i taste it

 

well not sure if anyone remembers me but finally got my computer fixed so hello everyone!

 

HI Welcome back.
