    Well duh it's taco width, that's one of the main reasons i/people are using it. Plus it's 6 on 5.5 so my wheels will work perfectly. My wheels are 4.5 backspacing with -12mm offset. they stick out a fair amount right now with only 11.3" wide tires. You can trust me, when i say i'll be content with whatever it is i build. But thank you for informing me ;)

    Not jelly douche nozzle!! :p Don't think yours will be street legal right??

    I rocked a sas'd 94 extcab toy on 37's factory width and 28" of frame height rock crawled the shit out of it never had any issues was it top heavy yeah but i didnt have issues due to the flex i had, that and i know the limits of my truck so as long as you dont drive it like an idiot should be fine. there are mud trucks out there with 60" frame height and full size width that do just fine cuz they drive them in the mud only and dont try to corner at 30mph with them..

    Yup and I love them. No issues at all so far, and they turn so easy compared to Warn Hubs.


    I got mine cheaper than that from C & M performance machine in MI. Great guy with awesome prices. Not much cheaper, $270 shipped.

    Really? Most of the stories I've heard they are very hard to turn. Probably helps that you have an ARB up front huh? That's a damn good price! On their website, they are listed at $363. When I saw $275 at ECGS, I had to swoop :D
