    Hard to believe just how much has changed in the past year of ownership. Ready to do an overhaul on the front, but can't decide on what all I want to change. Let's see your before's and after's!

    @58 Siesta is that plasti dip or rattle can on your steelies? I also have those, and am trying to decide whether I want to paint them or get some FJ steelies. I like your look!

    They're MB TKO's with the updated caps. I believe the tire size is 245/75/17's.

    Just wondering, why did you decide to remove the fender flares?

    One of them was removed by some brush on the trail last spring. A buddy claims he's still working on it with the plastic welder... After about 2 months, I took off the other rear one and added the plugs. I liked it enough that I did the front about a month later.

    Gonna let my buddy fix the fucked up one, if he ever actually does it. Not sure he even realizes I took them all off. I only see him occasionally.
