    Ok...i gotta come clean. In my intro it says my truck has a lift...it does but its incomplete. I did the 5100s in the front and left them on the first notch as i still need to put the aal in the rear.
    My reason for bringing this up is tires. I planned on the firestone mt2 285 75r16 mostly because i cant find a better deal for an mt tire. Was obviously gonna wait til spring to complete the lift and buy tires...well its come to my attention that i need tires now...dont want to spend on another set of 265s...anyone ever run the 285s on a stock rig? Wont be doing any wheeling this winter...figured they rub the frame loc to loc but i can manage that. Any opinions? Yes i know there are threads on this...

    Strictly amateur clutter :D

    1) wood still visible on bench
    2) plenty of room to stuff more under it
    3) far too much clear floor available
    barely untidy. :p

    and your receptacles are upside down... :boink:

    Yea, I should fire my electrician! Oh wait, that was me... :anonymous:


    I lived in a house with the receptacles that had the ground up and I hated it with a passion. It's not a requirement for residential, so I did it how I felt I wanted it. Heck, I amazed myself at actually buying 20 amp receptacles rather than the $1.00 Cooper 15amp'er's :anonymous:

    You just gotta undercoat that thing and it'll hold up under that salt.

    I don't do this for every guy, but I'll let you look at my clean rear end!

    Nice curvaceous rear. ;)

    The truck is the only vehicle I ever picked out as opposed to just found as a good deal and also the only one I ever made payments on, the intent is to keep it a long time.

    It can sit in the garage, I have the XJ and the daily van.

    It is almost a convenience store - they don't sell bacon, not very convenient. :p
