It's surprising how much cutting they require. I'll bet your excited ti put them to a real test. :D
 
Hence why I still have 37s.
Same for me, and because I don't want to be the old dude who has to crawl into the floor first, in some situation. (Or flat ground) :doah:

Cuz it would happen in front of Ryan's wife, whom I know would give me a big pile of grief about it!!!
:haha:
 
Where's the thumbs down button when you need it.....
Hey.... some of us aren't as tall as you, and even though I have a new knee, I don't see myself returning to my teen years.
 
Did some much needed maintenance before the trip out to the Vernal Rock Rally.
I pulled the front hubs to service the bearings and replace a broken wheel stud. In the process, removed the wheel spacers I had been running.

With the hubs apart, I decided to replace the keepers since the old ones lost their key way.

2” less poke. Before half the tire was hanging out.

While doing a nut and bolt check I found the reason for some wobble while driving.
King pin bushings looked fine.

Dropped off at my friends shop to get the AC recharged and they just happen to be next to an exotic car dealer. I’d still pick mine.

On the trailer and headed out.

Somehow I let over a year go by without an update. I got a few pics from the vernal trip and since.

The vernal trails are similar to Moab but packed in more tightly, meaning you can hit more in less time. Lots fun to be had.
On the first day I had my steering ram rip out of the mount on the tierod. Luckily one of the people on the trail had a Karnage welder and let me use it. It’s a pretty slick tool and I want one. I was able to patch the ram back to the mount. But it was single sheer and didn’t last long.

The local shop, Anarchy Offroad was a sponsor for the event and let me bring the Jimmy into their shop. They set me up with some tabs and their tools so I could fix the steering. Class act these guys. They are the same ones that brought Ashman the rear yoke to the trail after he broke the previous year.
