    It’s getting replaces with OEM bolts on the way so those bolts are just a place holder. Truck isn’t getting used for another week so it’s all good! Thanks though!

    Finally got some mud on her. Posted here last week about getting my BMC done. Got the invite from our neighbors to go camping on their property this weekend, so we shot some guns, rode some trails, and had a great time! Was itching to do ANYTHING offroad since I got the BMC, so I was lovin life.

    NO RUBS

    I'm thinking about getting those km229's in the same size. Are they really 25lbs each wheel as advertised?

    Love the sprayer set up as your pump. Any insight on the plumbing used from sprayer hose to clear tubing transition? Thanks a lot.

    Thanks Jim, it’s a really simple setup.
    1 gallon pump sprayer, cut off the nozzle, attached a 3/8 ball valve or needle valve will work, 5ft worth of 3/8 OD clear tube inner diameter is 1/4, along 2 small hose clamps where to valve meets the black hose and clear. Worked like a champ.

    So the 229s are supposed to be 48lbs. There's also the 228s that are supposed to be 35ish. Don't know where you got the 25lb number from. I don't think any beadlocks are gonna be close to that. The km229s and 37in BFG krawlers weighed 118lbs together.

    Washed and waxed the Tacoma... and relegated it to street parking duty to make room for our new daily driver:

    Little Lexus NX300h (hybrid). My 93 year old gpa finally stopped driving so we took it off his hands for a steep family discount. 2015 with 36k miles, couldn't pass that up!

    and the poor Tacoma will probably stay on the street until we sell the black Jetta:
