    You're putting me a difficult place here Ben! Orange or blue? I feel like the person putting this together should get preference on 2nd color selection!

    Is there also going to be a rainbow colored option with a limited edition silhouette of JFK's face, with a half zip and thumies on the sleeves?

    So i got some of the front superbumps from wheelers for my truck. For $50 for the fronts, i am very pleased with the results. So much better riding on the trail than stock :D if you are tired of that not so awesome jarring sensation every time you hit the front bump stops on the trail, i highly reccomend them.

    Also, i will go through and tally up hoodie interest and if we have enough interest (i think we do) start that process.

    An added note: I've been hanging on the 98% completion of my retro, and I'm at the point where they haven't been sealed up but in mock up install for alignment verification I found somehow they have drifted almost 45 deg out horizontally.. anyone have any tips, besides cutting them out and re-setting them? I'm thinking a persuasive shimmin' into horizontal happiness? Is that possible? Anyone with tips or avail to help, I'd beer-ing-ly be appreciative~ Andy :)

    Welcome back!


    On another note.... I just got some Duratracs. Should have them on next week sometime..... Gonna sell my old tires. $250 for all 4 if anyone wants them. They are still great on-road and have been getting me around well this winter. Still have some useable life left in them. Will fit on 17" rims with a 3 inch lift and some backspacing. (cant remember how much I have off the top of my head) They do rub a little and require a little trimming. 295/70/17 nitto terra grapplers.

    Reason I am switching? They are horrible in the mud/slick trail conditions and I am tired of getting stuck on those muddy hills :p So if you drive mostly on the road, these will work great for ya!
