    Random fact about me... I love bowling!
    So my truck often graces the parking lots of these establishments...

    So on the way home this evening I stopped to take a few photos of some deer hanging out in a field next to some train tracks... No record breakers but I always love seeing any kind of wildlife roaming around.

    all I can think about is dinner and jerky now.

    Linex, well, I would make sure all the clearance you want is done. Then beat it back another .25" if you are seriously getting it done. They will get it all over everything you do not want it on so make sure you are ready for that. Or try to tape up all your suspension etc.

    Could just grab some Rustoleum and spray paint it Like some of us have.

    Not sure I want to think about how much 7 37's would cost me considering I need to be all match match with my trailer

    No matter what though, the dust and crap will be all over the Linex and look the same all over again.

    From what I hear, military surplus tires are pretty dang cheap. That'd be a possibility if you were willing to ditch the methods.
