    Pretty much stock with some crap welded to it.
    :thumbsup: thanks for the info man! I've been lugging around a big old rubber made one that folds in half, it takes up a ton of room.

    no big complaints yet...definitely getting chewed up a bit in the loose rocks..curious to see how the are looking after the summer

    no major chunking which is good tho

    looking forward to hitting poughkeepsie again and seeing how they hook up...i walked up last time on the old STTs...i swapped over to the Pros shortly after last FJ Summit..

    definitely need to get up more in the coming months tho...really hoping to get my LCA bushings swapped out and COs rebuilt soon though...free time is not on my side since buying the house tho...more projects than i can count between the house, mtn bikes and trucks

    it's nice having performance not go down from the old STT, and also add better winter performance.

    in the mid 20k on them now and the wear is doing well for me so far...i'll have to grab some close up pics to show the wear at some point

    Oh I hear you. The year and a half after I bought my house I only rode my mountain bike 9 times (usually ride 100 or so times over that timeframe) and barely got out camping. Houses can be like a rabbit hole, so good luck with yours. On the plus side I'm really knowledgeable about fixing damn near everything. :D

    luckily we've been able to get out a few times already, but it's tough passing up weekend days when you could be taking care of a project...sometimes you need to just bug out and clear the head tho...our trip to Kite Lake was a nice break in our schedules

    house has been good still..but it's been a bit of both...chipping away at some upgrades/improvements with a bit of unforeseen repairs...

    this week's project is the garage, so that's going to make me happy :) painting the walls now, then install the cabinets and toolboxes, reposition the shelves and start putting shit away...having a place for all my tools will make future jobs easier...not to mention, having a clean/organized garage will make me much happier :cool:

    hahaha, well hopefully you're value has been going up enough to cover all of the expenses to make the next move an easy pill to swallow...

    i'll have to swing by at some point and check out the progress...i know you had a lot of plans for that relic
