    Me will probably hightail it on home, depending on how late things get, since I'll have work booked the next day.

    Nice, you'll like the capability of the 4' over anything shorter based on my experience with a 2' vs 5'. Don't touch the tunable tip until you get it installed and measure the swr from the factory, sometimes it's spot on, I think they bench tune them before they box them up... My 5 foot was tits on but my 2 foot was a beotch to tune down i think just because it's 2 feet lol.

    I am going to try. I will have 285/75/16 by then and skids by then as well.


    :( I already touched it. I am going to have my parents neighbor do the install. He owns an automotive electric shop so he will be able to get it dialed in for me. I am going to have it wired into my center counsel.

    Probably just 1 & 2. I don't think I could get off work long enough to do the whole thing.

    FJ it is then :)

    How much snow did everyone get in the last few days? We got roughly 5 inches here in riverton... tough to tell though since it all just blew around and drifted.

    Gotta love over estimations! I'm glad for the trails we got less but sad for the farmers who need more!
