New Look

Postby kevheb on Feb 27 2010 06:19 pm

Got a good deal on some almost new 35 MT/Rs.  :D

My 33s are for sale if anyone is interested: viewtopic.php?f=23&p=57824#p57824

My wheel wells don't look so empty anymore.  :mrgreen:

Looks great Kevin!  I got not so good of a deal on some new 35" MTR's.  Mine looks a little dumpy now.  I think the
new tires are a bit wider than the old style.  Maybe the 1" added width of a bead-lock would help....

I changed my mind about this whole Jeep thing and went back to stock...

Just kidding. My mom found that picture. That's a picture of my Jeep, circa 1992, probably not long after I drove it home from the dealer.

Thanks. It's come a long way in 18 years. I don't know how close I am but I may eventually have more aftermarket parts than original parts.  :shock:

My 33s are siped.

Now that I have 35s, how long does my Dana 35 (30 spline w/ ARB) axle have to live? Just trying to be prepared.  :mrgreen:

I see a pattern - I'll say 35 minutes on the trail or 35 road miles, whichever is furthest from home.

Depends...are we talking Fordyce Trail? Then I give you a few good runs before it explodes. Strawberry Trail? Maybe up to the waterfall before it explodes. Hammers? Good luck  :mrgreen:

Most anyone else, the axle would last a long time. With you behind the wheel  :shock:  I have seen you drive up winch hill 1 on Fordyce like you stole the Jeep  :twisted:
