    Oh man, I wish. I love seeing the fullsizes loaded with a flatbed, transfer tanks, and welder/generators. So legit. One of these days...

    Yup, link is my sig. TTORA doesn't allow comments on build threads. I kinda like it just because it keeps the clutter down and you don't have to go through pages and pages to see the next part of someone's build. Kind of sucks when you want to ask a question and someone's PM box is full though. Thanks! Its sure a fun little yota.

And i like the farm pics ya got, looks alot different from texas farms though, like how ya haul tractor stuff with her

    So,

    Today I drove down to the front range for an appointment to install some new Dynapro ATM 265/75/16 's. After about a half hour the salesmen came out and told me that they had a "mishipment" and that one of the 4 tires I ordered was the wrong size. Anyways, after discussing a couple options I opted for BFG AT's at no extra charge. Sweet! So basicly got the BFG's for $159 a tire.

    Felt so good I wahed and waxed her. Also got 26.5 mpg on the mountain roads with my light foot and slower highway speeds.

    Yeah the locking nuts on those bolts make it pretty easy/fast to do. I would take it off from time to time to haul ATVs

    Had a bad wire from somewhere in wiring harness that goes to starter solenoid, you think I unravelled that octopus of wires to trace it out ?? Hell no, I circumvented the whole ECU B.S. & now use a toggle to start truck (only temporary until I install a push button) It may have been in the ign. switch itself, fuck that, too expensive, getting back to basics....:)
