    They are welded on in the strongest location, while keeping good clearance i wouldnt worry about pulling them off they are lined up with the frame too. If it happens it would be due to welds..

    Seems like a lot of KM2 failure lately and makes me happy i bought Goodyears..
    Edit: then again thats probably why they call it a good year cuz thats about how long they will last.

    hmm ill pm cbi. ill just have to gusset the fuckers to the structural support next to it, because like i said, the structural support of the bumper (the frame mount) is all right there behind the tow point along that welded seam

    ya, you were completley right in where you suggested welding them, i was being a derp. But what they are concerend with is it bending the actual bumper

    :rofl: She sounds like a killer. haha Just looking at those pics I don't think I would call those calves, look more like yearlings maybe. Still too young to shoot, no antlers and out of season. haha
    Yep. Wonder what he hit. I still think mine was a stick hitting a previous gash since there are two gashes overlapping. Then mix that with me stopping and putting weight on those gashes and I think it burst open...
    I am kind of set on my next set of tires being MTR's but I saw someone kill an MTR too... A fucking fork did it!! He said he had to scrap that tire and buy a new one.

    I wasn't exactly available, plus IF is still a 45-60 minute drive north of me.

    Not much else... Almost no pics, rained/snowed continually. Was mostly a social trip.

    it went pretty well - a small doe jumped out at me on the North Fork, almost to the reservior, on my way home, and I was going 60-70, and slowed down to about 30ish when I hit her at the driver's corner of my ARB. NO damage, just hair and blood haha. The deer just rolled and got up and jumped away. I just continued on!

    Lisa: it's not my fault the deer hopped out in front of me. Her mommy wasn't around to say "DON'T CROSS THE STREET WITHOUT LOOKING!" :laugh: I did slow down after all!

    The ID people were whizzing past me as well as the UT's. I had a guy from OR pass me within the Yellowstone boundary on the way home (55mph limit there) and he had to have been doing 80 - caught up to me and starting honking the horn and flashing his lights because he couldn't pass me right then :rolleyes: . Then I caught up to him at a construction zone because he could only drive his dumb dodge truck 10 mph over the dirt and gravel (posted as 35mph)....so I started honking and flashing my lights at him :D

    That's pretty funny right there!! haha

    I swear like half of the Idahoans anymore are from Cali and Utah and they all drive like a bat out of hell. Just try driving the speed limit in Salt Lake City and see how long it takes to get a traffic jam behind you. haha

    My wife said driving in Oregon wasn't bad at all, at least compared to other big cities. There were too many people but she said everyone in Portland were really nice and courteous drivers.

    :D I hope he got the message

    yeah, my cousin is stationed down there. calls his commute to the base the mormon 500

    probably has to do a lot with the roads, flat/straight roads vs. hilly/twisted roads can make a big difference in your speed

    Do these look like Iroks to you guys?

    [​IMG]

    Check out this ad, says they are 39.5x11.50R17's but they look a lot thicker than that and Iroks don't come that skinny. Hell I don't think anything bigger than a 35 comes that skinny.
    http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=24937872&cat=599&lpid=&search=Swamper&ad_cid=18

    He even has a pic of the size listed and I can't read it real well but looks like 11.50 to me:confused: I think I can almost make out a 3 though and the spacing looks a little wide there too.
