    Old vs new... CB vs HAM, Cable vs Synthetic. They work, its just a better way to do business, which unfortunately costs money. I would hope that winches start to come with something other than the hooks sooner or later.

    If anyone is now embarrassed to be seen with a flat link thingy due to the rantings of the grumpy old man, I'll buy it for cheap.

    I think they're cool but I can't afford a new one.

    & I had to make my first real evasive maneuver/swerve since I lifted/removed swaybar/315s and the truck felt solid and responded well. High spring rate ftw

    Damn that conversation kept going. I am sure based on experience that old Brett can recover a stuck rig with a twig, a rock, and some twine from his fist aid kit and he doesn't need any fancy new stuff with safety labels on it. Experience can far surpass technology in a number of areas. But I am younger, have less experience then Brett and can afford the additional safety measures to make it easy to have a safe recovery.

    Young Brett cut Jake some slack. I remember just a short time ago a young punk ass high school kid on TW that was not nearly as refined or arugmentative as you are now.

    And anyone notice how the "Brett's" are the trouble makers? Interesting. :D

    I assumed they were around $50.00. Actual price is laughable, especially when combined with the marketing lies.

    But at the same time, there is a wide range of cost associated with something as simple as wheels. In the end they are all round and the only thing that really sets them apart performance wise is the offset. Otherwise, they all work the same, without any need for special training. More people, unfortunately, actually buy wheels for the design and color, and don't take into account the issues associated with having the wrong offset. But I digress..

    I see that chunk of aluminum the same way, but it does look cool and I won't deny that.
    And it certainly works. And to be honest I don't think anybody needs any special training to use one, I just didn't care for that pretentious remark that set this whole conversation on edge.

    Just stopping in to see what stuff is flying around lately. Living in highly populated areas sure makes people edgy and irritable. Everyone had a different tolerance level for everything from how to roast a marshmallow to how to spell the words like osolating..wait that doesn't look right.

    Initially I thought Jake misspelled on purpose but now I've gotten to where I'm actually anxious reading a post to see how the word great, grate or axel was used. But that doesn't matter, I know he's a great at a lot of stuff that I suck at. No need for me to stir that pot. Everybody's different and thats ok,,that's why some people need a flat link, 35's and $15k in mods to drive in a city more to get attention than for function. Not because they are doing trails that someone with 33 or even 32's couldn't do. I'm actually the opposite of EAF and have no stickers, like to be low profile and enjoy getting as little attention as possible. Works pretty well too as most the expensive builds I see here through the summer just look right by me as they drive home to the city. Ha

    I don't know that I've ever been accused of being refined. Lol. Argumentative I'll concur with. :D

    And punk high school kid? I bought my truck two years after I graduated high school.

    I read through that several times and read that as 'are' every time. :notsure:
