Yeah, I need to grab one D-Ring too. As far as lights go, are we doing any night wheeling on Days 4-6? If not, I am not gonna buy replacements for my cheapo busted up ones.

I dont know.. I just wanted them in case there was to be any night running, that and my lights need to be redone anyway.

i will be definately be putting some miles on it to test it out before driving out there. i have a 300 mile AAA free tow if i break some ish too. haha

I still need to buy and build up a truck and the tax man cometh so there goes my truck

Mattman- rent a Liberty and come on out.

Ordered my alternator. Down to funding fuel and sustenance. I miss having a big freezer.

I returned a CV shaft that I can't use now. That gives me almost enough for ONE new tire. At least I can finally lose the crappy spare that I have been carrying around.
Hoping to sell some more crap and fund three new tires. That would give me new rubber all around and a really nice spare.

engine oil
locker ground
CB and Ham remote speakers

What size tires you running? I have many sets (33x12.50) here at the house. I could bring a couple out to you for the run.

33x12.50x15 buckshot style.

Buckshot Style?

Probably Maxxis Buckshot Mudders... similar to the BFG MT

ahhh, well i have at least a couple of spare TSL swampers that I could let you borrow for the run if you want.

Lemme know

I think he's more worried about the drive here (from missisippi) than the actual trail. TSL Swampers wouldn't be good for that

LOL

you know THAT is an excellent point

Sorry Res

Trailer the tires. I don't pull a little trailer with 2-3 sets of tires for nuthin. LTBs rawk balls for my vehicle, but SUPER SUCK on the road.

Even my trailer is going to be on Swampers

Sorry I didn't elaborate earlier; I was at work.

The Nankang Mudstars that I have should be just fine. The pair in the rear have about 45,000 or so miles on them and still have at least a 1/4" of tread. These tires worked fine last year. I just have my heart set on fresh ones to mount on my fresh rims and I am using the AZ run as an excuse to buy them now.

If I just get one for now, I will have two fresh ones up front and two worn ones in the back with a 30% worn one as a spare. Not the end of the world, because I can get the other new ones when I return and they won't have rock rash.

I just wanted to be blingin' with the new chrome. Let the chips fall as they may. My $$ was better spent on the new axles, without a doubt.
