    I've turned my drivers side a few times to fix the taco lean. Keep forgetting to check it out on flat ground haha. May take the truck out Friday as we look for some camp spots. Who knows

    About to go to lowes so I can pick up a steel punch that will actually turn the collar...since that aluminum POS they send with them is a joke

    I'll just say they're pretty sweet, only thing I have to say is the rebound is a bit rough but I've only had stock so far.

    And now i can tell how much the back is lacking

    thats the way to do it though.....obviously i have no welding knowledge, skills, or abilities so I rely on awesome friends and fellow TW'ers to help me out and the guy @Honeybadger415 (Tyler) that is gonna tackle this for me is going to put his mad skills to work since it will take some ingenuity to get it to work on my AllPro bumper

    I have the basics of welding down and I practice when time is on my side. So this is going to be interesting to say the least. and I will for sure have a friend who is an actual certified pro nearby to give me a load of crap when my welds look like poo :rofl:But at least he'll tell me if its structurally sound or not.

    I was an airframe structural mechanic for 12 years...so i can bend the shit out of aluminum and pneumatic hammer the hell out of rivets...even do composite work...but when it comes to welding I'm :crazy:

    Hahaa exactly! Ill have a fresh stock of grinding discs around to hide my shame.

    And you should keep an eye on the blemish wheels scs thread if you dont already. That could be your ticket to getting your spare on the low

    True dat, damn good deal! I passed up quite a few chances on scs' for now my steelies are fine. And at 70bucks to replace I cant complain, even if they do add a ton of weight on the hubs
