Miss the truck yet? @santabarbarataco

 

Any recommendations on beadlocks? I was looking at some methods, wanted some of your opinions.......

You could check this place out.

 

True bead locks aren't street legal FYI.

Is a brand that is dot approved but they cost like 600 a rim I think

 

if your gona buy new id go with the TR beadlocks they look sweet! if used you can probably find a set sooner or later on DR for some Walker Evans, KMC enduros, or Robby Gordon's i see those three brands come up pretty often in our 6x5.5 bolt pattern. and expect to pay around 800-1200. iv got the kmc enduros, havnt gotten to drive one em yet but they seem super stout

 

Wonder why? Prolly because of the 100 bolts that need tightened safety wise.....

 

Here in Co they are not legal. It it's one of those grey areas. Cops really won't bother with here unless your being a douche bag on the road. It's just one of those roll of the dice things.

 

Here, every other barbie jeep has them (CO), so I really see it as a non issue.

I like that site you put up, looks like anything can be done really, colors, patterns, etc.

 

They're not really an issue outside of vehicle safety inspections in most states. Even then, the place I took my truck to in Missouri didn't even come out to look at the vehicle.

 

I know for sure BlackTacoma (Matt) here in Co has true Method bead locks and hasn't had issues here. So go for it.

 

Does anyone have a lead on a T-100/Tundra axle? I am looking to pick one up in the next few months.

 

Do the Enduros clear the front calipers? I know you haven't driven it but I know the DTF team was running them before. I'm running a 5mm spacer and shaved the spacer and still rub on them from time to time when I don't carefully center the wheels since they aren't hub centric. Sometimes I wanna sell them because of that and switch to a hub centric beadlock but I think most are already pre-bored for race hubs.

 

Good deal for someone looking for an econoline rear end.

find a shop with a 20 ton press it will shear the clip. Do not try it with a smaller press it will bend the press
