    Yeah it is... Never seen it around before, but a lot of people live on farms that are secluded around here so who knows it may just be out for its bi-yearly alignment.

    Those look like tread wrights to me, not BFGs.

    You're right, couldn't read them. I have experience with those things, I'm not sure about the new Bead2Bead ones but the old ones chunk apart and wear down too quickly. Its like they never evacuate the air from the molding machine when they are making them, just little holes in every tread block. Never had one explode though.

    To put steel wool (the thick kind) inside, it helps catch more oil......most catch cans have some sort of oil level window.

    Some lift, some armor, some scratches..
    Yea these are the B2B. IMO They look great and seem very well done. Deep tread, clean re molding, and balanced well. Time will tell how they hold up. These will only see on road use and maybe a little dirt roads, but no rocks. I've got 255/85 KM2s for that. I previously had the TW Wardens w/ Kedge grip (crushed walnuts and glass imbedded in the tread). They performed really well both on and offroad, gave me 50k trouble free miles.

    Oh really.. I had no idea. That would be nice to catch more oil.

    This wood contraption may look sketchy, but it actually works damn well to lift the cab for less than $20.

    Yeah, throw in not the super fine steel wool, but like one of those restaurant dish cleaning ones, know what I mean. When the air goes through the can it has more surface area to collect oil on.

    Not sure if anyone said this yet, but you can cut the head off, drop the ball joint and then use penetrating oil, heat and vice grips to remove the studs
