    Oh. Yeah it was really easy. You drill out the old rivets. Then install the new one per instructions, using the supplied rivets. I recommend reading the instructions carefully and make sure you have a pop-rivet gun.

    Yep, according to the brochure, the SB has 100lbs more capacity in tongue weight and towing the LB :p
    and the access cab is has the best rating, 100lbs more than the SB.
    100lbs!!! :rolleyes:

    Can you post a pic straight back the side of your truck to show if/how much your tires poke out from the fenders?

    Haha. I was wondering if you would notice. That happened the other day after I washed it. Usually the only time it gets pooped on - when it's clean!
    I went up in the mountains today and got it a little muddy. Time for a bath again.

    No trimming necessary. Just bolted on & GTG. I am very surprised about the breakage. The nuts have always been put on with a torque wrench.

    This situation has got me to thinking about accelerating the plan to get new wheels. And getting away from the spacers.

    Konigs are great wheels. I like a lot of the TRD wheels also - but I think most of them are 7.5" wide & 5.5" back spacing (like my sport wheels) - requiring spacers to clear the 285s. I have some research to do. I want to go with a 17x8, with 4.5" back spacing. Sticking with 17" wheels will allow me to keep my new DuraTracs. I also want to go with black.

    I like those TRDs. I've seen them before. Reeeaaallllly spendy, and I would need the spacers with them.

    I like these SCS wheels. Matte black
