    Installed the Polk 651s in the rear after running only fronts. The fronts are amplified and sound great. The rears are not amplified and sound very muddy and crappy.

    I'm running the fader 50% more to the front and the backs are simply providing a nice back fill, nothing more. Eventually I will run a 4 channel amp to incorporate the rear speakers.

    Next up... install the sub. Will probably do that Monday or Tuesday.

    Many peeps around here run 33s on the AT and don't notice much issue. The MT will seem a bit sluggish off the line but be fine at highway speeds.

    Im interested in some opinions on painting a tube bumper. Is it worth it to bring out a paint gun or will a few cans do it? I've seen some people use bed armor for the strength but I'm not sure I want the texture.

    I would say most are not geared. I ran That for almost a year with a MT, I didn't re gear until I went to 315/75's

    Having some problems with my right rear brake drum, had a good freeze a few days ago and my e-brake got frozen on but now it's thawed out and I put on the brakes and the right rear locks up and stays locked for 3-10 seconds after I take my foot off the brake, any ideas?

    Yours is below as well? Thought they didn't start putting the e-brake cable under the springs until 03.
