    I use to love their bbq slaw as a teenager into my 20s, saw it in a store once but not in a long time. The BBQ not so much after I discovered good bbq haha. Back in the day it was all minced. Been many years not sure how the bbq is now, read some reviews they have sliced and pulled pork now.

    These days I prefer Lexington style bbq, with a vinegar, peppers based sauce and pulled or sliced pork with bbq slaw the same way. If it has that heavy thick red tomato based bbq sauce that’s not NC bbq that’s texas beef or bbq chicken stuff there lol.

    You can probably make your own bbq, on a Weber kettle, that is better than 90% of the restaurants around here. Most of them are overpriced for mediocre Q and shitty small portion sides.

    For those helping me out with getting these spacers off. I ordered an impact gun, breaker bar, pry bar, and heat gun.. If the spacer is seized would y’all put a pry bar between it and the wheel hub?

    Put the breaker bar on them. Take your jack handle and put over the breaker bar for further leverage. It’s gonna snap something but hopefully it’s the nut breaking free.

    Blow torch. Can't be tight when it's liquid.

    Ok stupid question but I gotta ask. Tire gets really close to the break caliper. Is this ok?

    Ugh, that explains the spacer. Talk about a poor solution. Should be ok, but hard to tell by sight and no measurement. You will know for sure if you hear grinding

    Bill Spoons is great for pork sandwich, their coleslaw is awesome. About 5 pounds of sugar and vinegar

    what wheels are those?

    Ideally you want at least 3-5mm space between the wheel and any of the brake components.

    Just a heads up,

    I have a BAMF bumper coming in a few weeks. If anyone is interested in a Westin bull bar let me know. Brand new condition.

    I trade labor to install the bumper for the bull bar. I even got the R4T bumper parts so less cutting.

    Not exactly looking for any hand outs, but happy to help if you want to bring the truck over. Install can’t be any different than my PELFREYBILT
