If you're referring to my rig, they're 33x9.5 R15. I believe the widest you can go is 10.5. The 10.5 BFG's do look cooler than the 9.5's, but HJ has a whole list of reasons why the 9.5 is better.

Look up the "Marvelous Mystery Lift."

A cowl (or maybe ram air?) hood is definitely in my truck's future. I'm finally getting back on my feet since I just starting working again. Once I pay off a few debts, I will be modding once again!

I hope your pockets are deep. Turning a TJ or a JK into a decent DD/trail rig will make 50K look like "walking around" money.

Killin' my dreams.

It does sort of seem like just an appearance package (besides the lift), but it is a concept so there's still hope.

Whatever... I'll probably have a Wrangler by the time this comes out.

Have you guys heard about this? What are your thoughts? The Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 Concept is a reasonable attempt to bring the off-road fight back to Ford, with a four-inch lift, 20-inch BBS RD wheels, BDS shocks and a 550-hp supercharged version of GM's LS crate V8. But the real work is hidden be...

Lol. That would work great, but it's a little too pricey for me!

I think bed caps look awesome on our CC's. I'd get one but it would interfere with my CB whips.

Are there any alternatives to bed caps? Like some sort of rack (that doesn't go over the top of the cab), or anything that allows more storage area?

14x4

I'm sure it looks good right? I was thinking since it's white I would cut around it. But I probably don't even need to.

14x4

Its no big deal. I'm going to buy one either way.

Another part of it is the bad rap they get from the old over the wheel stud spacers. Wheel adapters are different. Most lump them all in the same basket. If they had been told that these are rotor retention devices the reaction would be different. I see. Well my Skidz flares are on. The MML is offi...

I am not at all surprised with them backing away from the truck equipped with spacers. Yup. They want nothing to do with my truck now that I have wheel adapters on it.

I just plan to do my torsion bar crank right before I go to get my new tires. Will they automatically align my wheels upon installation of the new tires? Or do I have to specify that?

A weak battery can take out motors. Both the starter and alternator suffer with a bad battery. I see no reason why a window motor could not also suffer.
