    turning radius is still about the same as the stock tires. MPG was pretty bad but i had a resonator full of sand so i cant give an accurate number. I was at 14 city and 16 hgihway. but i think now that i have fixed everything im at 16 city and 19 highway.

    Avid front light bar, Avid bolt on sliders, Avid rear bumper protector, T-Rex grill & bumper insert. Still lots to do though.
    LMAO...... Nice vid. Hey, the truck is looking really good. On a side note, I can't get any weekdays free this week. Wish I could check out the truck though. You've done some work to it. If you find yourself in Canyon country at all while you are down, hit me up. You can check out my 2 bikes I have for sale as well.

    Got the PM. I am happy I was a month off. Better than avg. that I'll be able to go. We need to start a meet for the date you want to hit Gorman though. Make a day of it & just get out there & have a blast. Need to get the ball rolling on it though before everyone starts making other plans. If you do it towards the end of your trip, better chance of getting more people & less of a crowd at Gorman. Just a thought.

    That stance is PERFECT! How well does the rear hold under load? Like - say, you had 1,000 lb. of scrap metal, lumber or other random shit in the back. My factory suspension isn't built to haul, and the ground clearance sucks!

    I dropped $350 :) Centrifugal clutch!

    The rear holds up amazingly! I need to recharge my shocks after this though (see below)

    Damn!

    I traded an iPod Touch for an X18 mini bike on Craigslist. 110cc 4-spd with clutch.

    First thing I did was take off the muffler and terrorize the neighbors hahaha:D

    OP, do you remember how much material you had to take off the calipers to fit the AR23s?

    I want to get some for our '07 4 banger...
