    ME LIKEY! I think 18's though. I like the size of your rims/tires since the dark is minimized by contrast.

    It's all an optical illusion!...lol It does ride a hell of a lot better though. But I own a truck, so that's not the utmost factor...:D

    Had another camping trip at Peacock Flats with some of the Hawaii Tacoma World crew :)
    Had a great time. Need to stay more than just one night. We had 2 prerunners in the group, and they needed a tug once in a while. Especially on the way back out since it started raining again.

    I led since our normal leader who knows all the trails could not make it. A lot of the guys have never been up here before.

    Hard to tell how steep this is from the photo, but this hill is STEEP :eek:

    Plenty! Can get lost out there. The real trails are the side ones. most of that is just the main upper and lower road.

    She does get to wheel it too :cool:

    Iven...once I cut my fenders...I'll be on those steeper one's. I had some decent rubbing when I pushed hard, which kept me from getting too agressive...:mad: I haven't looked where the rubbing is...but I know it only happens on a hard turn...

    Yeah, but you still need atleast some real skids, and maybe sliders. I keep forgetting that not everyone has 3/16" steel skid plates :D

    Finally! Only enough bolts in there to call them steps right now tho...
    Gotta get some more bolts, and longer bolts for the bearing carrier crossmember. Also probably gonna make some thicker heavy duty washers. The ones that came with the original sliders are paper thin.

    I was hoping the textured powdercoat would hide my ugly welds better...
