    Unfortunately, no.... :( I found 2 KM2s in your size a while back, but they were almost bald.

    I need two spare used KM2's in the 285 70 17 variety with as much tread left as possible.

    Pretty good actually. :) She's sitting on 33" muds now. (temporary while i wait for my rims for the 35s)

    Since I discovered that the front diff I was going to stick in while I wait for my new gears has 4.30 gears instead of 4.10s. I kinda just have to wait for my gears to come in before I'll be actually 4x4ing :(

    Heading to the junk yard in about 5 min to pick up some extra parts and maybe a couple seats from a toyota celica. :woot: We'll see what I can find though......
    Do they have to be KM2s?? I'd probably be able to find some 285/70r17s in mud terrain with some decent tread. :notsure:

    Like to keep them the same as what I have now. Have you been calling other stores too or just seeing what you guys got? And call me if you see a 2nd gen down there. I need some things too.

    Wet Taco Meet March 10-11th Elephant butte- Monticello Canyon trip.

    So it looks like nobody else is coming down from ABQ this weekend as of right now??? I just wanted to make sure I have the list right.

    As of right now we have about 16 trucks going.

    So here is the most current list of people going.

    Not going, but have been through Monticello "Box" many times. Be sure and hike up to the Alamosa Warm springs. There is a faint trail up to them just before you enter the box (assuming your going downstream), just to the north of the road. They are pretty cool! (or warm, no pun)...Its a bout a mile hike roundtrip

    Oh and FYI, not sure if the county has graded it since last summer, but last October the road was impassable due to flooding. Its been a while though so I'm sure you all will be fine and it will be more of a scenic trip than wheeling. Awesome place!
