    Nice! See? Rich.

    If you don't want to ever mess with it again, you should really look at that @ARCHIVE shackle flip. Really take advantage of the B110's

    It's only fitting. After all, yours was the first Taco I saw in person with 35's. That's really when the wheels started turning for me to do it lol!

    It's kinda apples to oranges. Or, smaller apples to bigger apples if you prefer lol! I went from 255/85/16 BFG's to 315/75/16 coopers. On the road there's no difference that I can feel. The Coopers are quieter though.

    Son the trail, the 35's are better. But BFG 35's would be too. At the off road park both tires performed very well.

    I posted this elsewhere, but I like it, so I'm putting it here too...

    So, Sunday morning at RC I made a rookie mistake. I totally missed the black arrow pointing to the mud pit at the beginning of Pole Line. I drove right in expecting it to be rocks with water on top like every other puddle I've driven through at RC.

    This video was taken by a girl standing on the other side. Pretty sure the Jeep people were hoping to see a Taco drown lol!

    This video starts just after I realized I'd screwed up, almost stopped moving, and threw both lockers on as fast as I could. I really thought I was going to be sitting there with water coming in. You can hear the pebbles stuck between the rotor and backing plate as I come out.

    Ryan @subzero helping me get those pebbles out

    I don't remember. The back spacing is 4 1/8 though. I thought that I had no rubbing until RC. I'm rubbing on both UCA and the frame in the rear on one side.

    I'm not going to run spacers though, so it is what it is.
