    Ahhh and now we know who's an AK fan! Hahaha...or do you side with the M1/M14 base?!?!?

    I've been a 'fan' of Military Arms et al since I was a young boy...even had historical books on Arms taken away during study hall in middle school (didn't get them back until I graduated high school!)!!!

    For a dyslexic kid who barely read 3 assigned/mandatory books during formal schooling, it really sucked having the only books I wanted to/actually read!!

    I feel the military should be issued UZI 9mms. Or maybe Mac 10s.

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    Costco mounted KO2's in that size on my stock rims before I had the lift. I had about .5 inches between the tire and the UCA. I put a 1.25 inch spacer on and it brought the tires out flush to the fender flares, gave it lots of room near the UCA, and gave it a nice stance. This was the day after running Big Levels. Not a great shot of the tires, but gives you the idea.

    I had a set of 35x10.5 Kenda Klevers purchased online, mounted, and balanced at Walmart. Surprisingly they got the balance spot on the first time. I'm gonna guess this is highly dependent on which Walmart and who is working. Probably not the first alternative, but an option to consider.

    I brought a separate set of wheels and tires for them to be mounted on, and so they didn't care what vehicle it was going on. If you have three taco buddies that will let you borrow their spare tire just to put on and drive over there, then you can just have wherever mount them on your main wheels and tell them its going on another vehicle, farm vehicle, etc

    What a fuck-tard. Obviously didn't pay attention or bother to listen when "learning" to drive properly. It's fools like him that will eventually cause an accident, all because of his ego and/or misguided sense of entitlement.

    While true, I can guarantee you that this idiocy is not limited to I95 or the East Coast. :D

    Anyone need a stock exhaust from a 3rd Gen with about 100 miles on it? I'm not sure if it fits the 2nd Gen too, will have to investigate. Took it off the truck less than a week after taking delivery, and it has been taking up space in my garage ever since. Anyway, when I move off this rock soon I can bring it back to NoVA with me if someone needs it for the bargain price of free.99. Otherwise, I will just let it go over here.

    Edit: to add DCSB.

    Thanks. Word on the street is report NLT 31 Jan to The Building. Worst case would be sometime in April. Still without orders though, just waiting on the list to come out. There are about 6 lists just sitting on someone's desk at OSD. :censored:

    Because they are the easiest semi auto rifle to get into. For parts replacement, aftermarket accessories, and ammunition availability there is nothing on the market that can compete.

    M14s/ M1As also suck ass.

    AKs can be very good, but the good ones arent cheap, and unless you know how to rivet and weld and understand how to make one, you aint doing it well at home.

    Appreciate the pic and sounds like may be hit or miss with Costco...how much lift did you end up with (or is it simply the spacer)?

    Thanks for the suggestions. Have you ended up lifting at all?

    About 3.5 on the suspension lift. Build thread has the details.
