Damn, looks real good. Inspiration for me to hurry up now. I'm hoping to have a roller by the end of the weekend, waiting on parts to put my 60 back together though.

Agreed. Slow down and stop making me look bad.

I'm thinking about getting rid of the SXs for something a little different. Would you guys run Iroks over SXs?

no, i think the SX's are a better choice. Ill buy them though if you decide to sell them. Shoot me a PM.

I'm really considering selling them if you or anyone else is interested. Also if anyone finds a set of 37" sicky treps or krawlers semi-local let me know.

that switch I can agree with. I definitely dont think i would switch to 37 iroks over the sx's unless maybe itd be even up on new iroks. i personally think in the south eastern style wheeling we do an sx will out perform and outlast an irok. are you gonna be done for big dogs?

Well i definitely think its possible, but i just sold one of my motorcycles so now i have some extra money to blow, thus why I'm thinking of new tires and most likely a set of RCVs which I know I wouldnt have by then.

Yea I get up at 430 too. Wait....but I don't get home till 630. Dammit. I'm in the wrong major for Nick time.

If Alec don't want those tires I MAY be interested. Buying tires will narrow my choices in axles which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Post up some info on them.

Haha yea but you'll be making good money when you get out of school atleast, crabbing is pretty much just dead end manual labor. They're Wills old tires on the recentered H1 wheels with 8 on 6.5 bolt pattern.

Got my shocks mounted today, looks like I'm going to have to notch my frame to allow for clearance for the axle side track bar mount.

Looks like Big Dogs is getting within my sights. Today I got the link mounts finished besides the tube that will go in between them. I also got ride height set on the rear, and everything checked at full bump and nothing rubs. My cowl is right at 44" at ride height. This week I should be getting the front shocks charged, and hopefully my transfer case back together and some driveshafts made.
