Famous last words around here. You're never done. ?

And that's why I said for now...?

I am so grateful that you're on this site and read these threads. Thanks Phil. If you come to Maine I'll buy you a beer/coffee/whiskey.

Same offer if Phil ever visits Vermont.

I think I'm done moding for now. Front windows tinted, LED light bar in the bed and MBRP 3 inch Cat Back Dual Split exhaust. This MBRP has a nice mellow tone and looks awesome.

Any chance of a sound clip pleaseeee

Hi Folks,

Yesterday I went out and grabbed my Metric micrometer to measure the diameter of the OEM tow hooks for another forum member. I also gave it a pat on the nose and then rolled it back about half a foot to give me more clearance to the access to the RV garage and my shop behind the RV.

best,

I can't believe you worked it that hard Phil. ?

My brother mounted 37”s on his method wheels a month ago, so I took the Goodyear Wranglers(285/70/17) off his Power Wagon wheels for my Ranger. They have about 30k miles on them, but for me the experiment is whether I want to stay with the 285 or downgrade to a 265 before spending money on new tires.

Mounted on my factory wheels along with the help of the 1.5” spacers. Definite rubbing at full lock on the rear crash bar. Will be removing them tomorrow afternoon. Also took his spare tire and mounted it on my spare. And that puppy fits beautiful in place under the bed.

Also you’ll see the available space with the 285 and spindle with the 1.5” spacer.

Nice, any drivetrain vibration?

That's on today's agenda.

Our lakes and pools are still froze up here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. ?‍?

Could have done way worse with your "drunken purchase".
Could have ended up with a damper...

That was a previous drunken purchase. Or maybe it was crack that night, who knows. All I know is how cool I look when that baby smoothly opens up - People look right past my skinny arms.
