Another thing we haven't factored in is the actual rolling diameter of a big, squishy tire at 7-10 psi..lol
Eh, its just like school. "Ignore gravity, ignore friction"

Brad you could always do a 203/205 combo behind your ZF5. They are the same spline and will bolt up. You would just need teases and a doubler kit. Better low range, stronger, and you can still be 1:1 on the highway.

Moar goodies showed up today.

Tired of getting nasty looks from everyone at the park when I am wide open throttle..so decided to put a muffler back on. Used the have a Thrush 2.5" and loved it, its durable and has no packing to blow out. I am going to fix my joint where my stack connects too since every time it rains I end up with a half gal of water in the exhaust..


New pre cleaner bowl to replace my cracked, yellowed one that I tried to night shade a year ago...

I think I am going to powder coat the rest of the pre cleaner since it is started to surface rust

Picked up these from some guy for cheap. Should work and I will have extras.

I tried to tint it LIGHLY with night shade by applying it heavy and wet sanding it down to make it even, but it was a epic failure.. the paint caused the plastic to crack for some reason. I like the crystal clear look anyways.

Not a whole lot going on with the truck, but I did decide to clean up the TSL wheels a bit.

Step 1...roll out of garage


Step 2...wash and reveal original color


Step 3... sand and lay a nice coat of white


Step 4...recoat with most obnoxious shade of yellow possible.



I also popped the outer beads off all my wheels and swapped the rubber stems out for the bolt in type. and finally got the piece of tree bark out of the bead.lol Its been in there for a year and it never leaked.lol


All four tires had a handful of sand in side too.lol Not sure how it got in there.lol
